"TUATARA - Breaking The Ethers" cd (1997) TUATARA (1997): Barrett Martin: drums, percussion, marimba etc. Justin Harwood: upright bass, bowed bass,vibes etc. Peter Buck: guitars, dulcimer etc. Skerik: saxophones,didjeridu, udu etc. Tuatara is one of the more surprising and slightly ridiculous supergroups in rock history. Comprised of Peter Buck (R.E.M.), Justin Harwood (Luna), Barrett Martin (Screaming Trees), and Skerik (Critters Buggin'), the quartet formed in 1996 to pursue music that their guitar-based alternative rock groups could not do -- namely, worldbeat, lounge-pop, and free jazz.
