Autumns is the musical identity of Christian Donaghey, from Derry, Northern Ireland. Since beginning in the Summer of 2013 with a brace of rough demos, the project's first recordings were quickly selected for what became Terrible Tuesday, a mini LP release on Karl O'Connor's illustrious Downwards label (home to regular touring partners The KVB and the likes of Tropic of Cancer, Silent Servant and O'Connor's own Regis project)
Described as "a return to C86  Jesus & Mary Chain meets Joe Meek and Ride head on", Terrible Tuesday both vindicated and transcended this distinction; a singular mutation of revered touchstones dealing in a rough trade of transgressive noise, no fi dysfunction and DIY angst.
Recording throughout 2015 and early 2016, Das Nichts (Nothingness) has seen the project foray into evermore extreme avenues, acknowledging Industrial pioneers like Throbbing Gristle, Cabaret Voltaire, SPK, and Death In June whilst realising an intensity that looks to contemporary techno for unremitting impact. Released on Glasgow's Clan Destine Records (torchbearer for Ela Orleans, Varg and Dirty Beaches amongst others) the cassette represented the first dark fruits of an extended period of recording, both in Donaghey's bedroom and in isolated sessions conducted at Smalltown America Studios.
Alongside preparations for new releases due in the near future the project has developed a notorious live show on the back of support slots for Moon Duo and The KVB, and a recent US tour which saw Donaghey share a bill with Lust For Youth in San Francisco. As well as confrontational appearances with likeminded luminaries, the project has remained as open to experimentation within the context of a live performance as it has during recording sessions, a notion affirmed by Donaghey's recent appearance at the Distorted Perspectives festival, where he provided a desolate live score to a screening of David Lynch's Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. Further cementing his reputation for uncompromising spectacle, Donaghey recently collaborated with renowned techno experimentalist Samuel Kerridge for a joint Downwards Records / Julius Society showcase at this year’s Paris Fashion week.
