‘Xylem’ is the first single to be taken from John Metcalfe‘s forthcoming album Tree. It’s an album that immerses the listener in twenty-four hours of the life of nature’s most majestic creations, it came from a desire in John to write at scale.
‘Xylem’ is named after the vascular tissue in plants which conducts water, dissolves nutrients, and helps to form stems: the material, John adds, “that gives a tree its strength“. A lower melody emerges in the track and then it builds, making the listener realise all this wakeful activity has a deeper, earthier purpose
