Producer and arranger to the likes of Peter Gabriel and Blur, John Metcalfe is one of the most diverse and fearless musicians out there. Born in New Zealand but made in Manchester he was a member of cult post-punk band Durutti Column and alongside Tony Wilson launched the pioneering Factory Classical on Manchester’s legendary Factory label whilst simultaneously cutting his clubbing teeth at the great city’s Hacienda. Alongside his solo output he has collaborated with a huge range of artists name-dropping artists such as U2, George Michael and Coldplay along the way.
John’s latest solo album, ‘Tree’, released by Real World Records, reflects an imagined 24 hour cycle in the life of a tree experienced by observing and listening to the ever-shifting interplay of light, colour and sound whilst exploring the intense and mystifying effect trees have on us all; our relationship with their physicality, their essence, and their importance to the future of our planet.
