Label: Memphis Industries. He’s a former member of José González’s backing band who released his first album on cult Scottish folk label Fence. You might have James Mathé (aka Barbarossa) pegged as a guitar-wielding troubadour, but the Londoner’s scope extends far beyond the realm of simple acoustic ditties. Bloodlines, his follow-up to 2008’s Chemical Campfires, pitches itself at the midpoint of those two extremes, creating atmospheric snapshots that crackle with electronics and simmer with a soulful warmth. Much of that intimate glow is down to Mathé’s tender, expressive vocals.

Take my hand If it gets you through, then it's alright Take my hand But take your time Till it relates to you, then it's alright You break my mind. Bloodline" Track Info. Written By Barbarossa. Release Date August 6, 2013. Bloodlines Barbarossa.

The debut album from London's Barbarossa, 2013's Bloodlines, is an atmospheric and yearning set of songs centered around singer/songwriter James Mathé. In the past, Mathé contributed to projects by such experimental folk-leaning artists as Fence Collective and Jose Gonzales. Essentially a solo project for Mathé, Barbarossa picks up on the spare folk influence of his previous collaborations but expands the sound into a more electronic- and rock-oriented palette

The album opens with weepy organ, subtle beats, and Mathe’s fragile voice, recalling the forlorn creations of the great Neverending White Lights. Lyrically, he discusses how fear and aversion to challenges will keep you from feeling hope, which is a universal and stirring sentiment. It’s a fantastic way to start.
