A propulsive meditation on the life lessons accompanying the swift passage of time, “Redwood Tree” was co-written by Cam with Anders Mouridsen and frequent collaborator Tyler Johnson, who produced the track. Symbols of community, communication and longevity — they often live well over 1,000 years — redwoods are common to California’s coastal forest, and can reach heights of nearly 400 feet. As a child, Cam didn...
