Xylouris White - The Sisypheans

The Sisypheans is Xylouris White's fourth album of progressive Cretan lute compositions, released in 2019. The Records presents sounds of the lute, George Xylouris' vocals and Jim White's (Dirty Three) drums in an open, spacious sound-field, produced by Guy Picciotto (Fugazi, Rites Of Spring). 
 
With the philosophical bent that suits their music's ancient headwaters, Jim and George are meditating on the life of a travelling musician, Sisyphyan in its repetition, but inspired in an eternal recurrence of themes and techniques that allow them to climb ever-further into their experience as players.
