Andrew Tuttle and Darren Cross - ‘AT/DC’ album launch + JWPaton

Andrew Tuttle and Darren Cross - ‘AT/DC’ album launch + JWPaton Australian multi-instrumentalist composers and improvisers Andrew Tuttle and Darren Cross present AT/DC, a debut duo album released on the esteemed Room40 label’s Someone Good imprint on 2 October 2026. Over its eight tracks, on AT/DC Tuttle and Cross respectively blend banjo and acoustic guitar motifs with digital synthesis, processed electronics and manipulated field recordings to create a body of work which is as melodic as it is adventurous. Darren Cross is one of Australia’s most stalwart leaders of alternative DIY music culture. He first turned heads in the 1990s in his groundbreaking band Gerling. As D.C Cross, over 8 albums Darren has continued to refine and define the notion of ecstatic guitar, a uniquely Australian take on the solo instrumental guitar. Andrew Tuttle dwells in an exploratory musical world, where the five-string banjo sits serenely and purposefully with shimmering waves of decay and reverberation. Holding a space that is abundant and generous, Tuttle makes outsider music that turns its listeners into insiders. Tuttle has released five solo albums as well as collaborative works with artists including SUSS, Mike Cooper, Padang Food Tigers, and the estate of Michael Chapman, on labels including Room40, Basin Rock, Mistletone, Longform Editions and Bedroom Suck. Special guest JWPATON is a Yuin artist and musician currently living in Western Sydney Darug Country. Working with lo-fi field recordings JWPATON creates layered processed manipulations of original source material. By pushing the limitations of digital software and minimal modular synth experiments he traverses a multilayered shifting sonic terrain.
