Tom Barton

Tom Barton is a Melbourne-based singer and composer whose work spans jazz, improvised, experimental and electronic music. His solo music is a journey of evolving soundscapes, featuring an improvised, psychedelic collage of voice, live looping and digital manipulation – evoking interior worlds, flow states and the mystical experience.

“Electronic and acoustic thoughts merge and co-exist beautifully … in the middle of it all sits Barton, putting his poetry in motion with beautifully clear-headed vocals.” – All About Jazz

Wominjeka (Welcome). We acknowledge the Yaluk-ut Weelam as the traditional custodians of the land on which we meet. Yaluk-ut Weelam means ‘people of the river camp’ and is connected with the coastal land at the head of Port Phillip Bay, extending from the Werribee River to Mordialloc. The Yaluk-ut Weelam are part of the Boon Wurrung, one of the five major language groups of the greater Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to the land, their ancestors and their elders—past, present and to the future.
