Saddleback has been played on NTS in shows including Great Southern Lands w/ James W, featured first on 9 January 2024. Songs played include Inside Rain.

Saddleback is primarily the work of Tony Dupé, who plays piano, pump organ, guitar, drums and clarinets; constructing loops from small musical sounds. On record, he has been joined by Peter Hollo on cello and Penny McBride on trumpet.

As well as recording many Australian bands and solo artists (including Holly Throsby, The Woods Themselves, Jack Ladder and Joseph Leonard). Tony Dupé creates music as Saddleback - named after the mountain on the south coast of NSW he once called home. Primarily a solo project with occasional guests, Saddleback has released two albums to date, 2004's critically acclaimed "Everything's A Love Letter", and 2007's "Night Maps".
