Fish And Scale
Tapestry
German artist Fish and Scale has returned with a hard hitting new single, Tapestry. An emotional, introspective track that draws inspiration from Roland Wälzlein’s own experience of undergoing major heart surgery at just six years of age. The song has been an outlet for Fish and Scale to help process what he went through.
The music starts off very restrained with the piano and guitar at the forefront as the vocals kick in with Fish and Scale acting as a narrator, building the scene, referencing the hospital environment but from a child's perspective, noticing small comforts in unfamiliar surroundings. The stripped back, vocal heavy mix is the perfect artistic choice, as it really helps the mind to focus on the lyrics and the powerful emotion that goes into every word. Referencing the hospital environment but from a child's perspective, noticing small comforts in unfamiliar surroundings.

The single continues a direction that has been present across his previous releases, where personal experiences are used as the starting point for the writing. Fish and Scale, who grew up in Franconia in southern Germany, has often drawn on formative moments in his life, including time spent in reflective retreats that influenced his approach to both music and songwriting.
Continuing with the same direction of his previous releases, where personal experiences are used as a starting point for the track, Tapestry carries on that same path with an authenticity that you can only really get from a person who has lived through the story they tell.
The uncomplicated nature of his storytelling and his skill in matching the mood from a musical perspective makes Fish and Scale a uniquely intriguing artist. In a world that is crying out for something different, Fish and Scale has done a fantastic job of doing just that. You can check out Tapestry for yourself right now.
