Darren D.C Cross

Darren "D.C" Cross (Gerling, Jep and Dep) is an Australian guitarist and storyteller.
Cross music is inspired by the 1960s and 1970s mainstays of American and British acoustic guitar (John Fahey, Roy Harper, Leo Kottke, Elizabeth Cotton, Nick Drake, Bert Jansch) but he is consciously forging his own musical identity within an Australian landscape.

Cross has been creating music for the last 25 years, from Gerling to Jep and Dep, and has written songs with Kool Keith, Kylie Minogue. He played shows with artists ranging from Beastie Boys, Beck, and Happy Monday to Johnny Marr, Courtney Barnett, Ryley Walker, Smog, Will Oldham to recently Ed Kuepper and Jim White, Mess-esque, Marissa Anderson, Lost Ragas and the Apartments.

Cross is fiercely independent, totally devoted, loves telling a story and is always threatening to conquer up something magical with the guitar.
