Once you have set the needle down on the record and heard for yourself the intimacies and impressionism, abstraction and unfiltered emotion found in The Forest In Me, Xylouris White’s fifth album release (and first since 2019’s The Sisypheans), you may wonder what was the mood of the room in which this music came to be. Only three people can say for sure, and even then . . .

Xylouris White is firmly rooted in the past and future. Playing Cretan music of original and traditional composition, the band consists of Georgios Xylouris on Cretan laouto and vocals and Jim White on drum kit. Xylouris is known and loved by Cretans and Greeks at home and abroad and has been playing professionally from age 12. Jim White is an Australian drummer known and loved throughout the world as the drummer of Dirty Three, Venom P Stinger and now Xylouris White. For the last four years these two men have been performing as Xylouris White, the culmination of 25 years of friendship forged through music and place.
