Premiere: Alex Hulme – ‘Family Tree’

Intricate folk songwriting with an emotional punch...

Alex Hulme can only write from experience.

Each song – each line, even – has to ring true, has to be drawn from his life, and what's around him.

New song 'Family Tree' cuts deeper than most. Alex draws on the experience of tragically losing a young relative, and this grief pushes his lyricism to new depths.

Understandably emotional, there's also a sense of strength within family, of finding solace and security in those closest to him.

A looping, entrancing, and intricately structured piece, you can check out 'Family Tree' below.
