about

‘Whistling Song’ is the second single taken from the eponymous debut album by Alluvial Nuggetts – a new band led by James Dutton, a Melbourne-based English-born singer/songwriter and guitarist known for his time in Flywheel, as well as stints in indie legends The Cannanes.

Alluvial Nuggets represents a major return to studio life for Dutton and reunites him with producer Tony Dupé (Jack Ladder, Grand Salvo). Here they have finessed a soundscape from within the local hall in Tylden, Victoria with a beautiful album as whimsical and peculiar as anything conceived in an English two-up/two-down.

Pressed for some backstory on ‘Whistling Song’, James Dutton submitted the following: “In 1987 I had all my belongings stolen from a beach in Bali while skinny dipping. The hostel I was staying at was a two hour walk along the beach and the sun was just rising. I found a small inflatable Batman in the water and used it as best I could to cover myself and started the long walk back.”

Alluvial Nuggets (out June 7) is a collection of songs that compresses time and space and a suite of music that expands to fit everything back in you might have ever lost.
