The fifth release on Blue Matter is a debut album from a guy whose performance and writing would easily give the impression that he is a seasoned campaigner. The confidence and the musicality are of a standard rarely heard. Michael Cullen Murphy was born and raised in Nashville, and moved to the UK when he was 11. His father was friends with the great Peter Rowan and many other country and folk artists, and since childhood, understandably, Mike has been dabbling in folk and country. However, Mike is better known as a reggae specialist, and has kept his special musical talents extremely quiet. Even though we had been friends with Mike for years, we had no idea he was an accomplished singer, player and songwriter, which is why we were so amazed when he played us the almost completed album. Not only does he have a great singing voice, but his songs have an impressive depth and sense of melody. If one had to put some kind of label on the music contained within this record, it would probably contain the words 'Americana' and 'folk', but that doesn't tell the whole story. There are touches of classic singer/songwriter and psychedelia too.A1. A Serial Killer's Love Song A2. Strings And The Wood A3. All Change At The 5 And Dime A4. The Day That We Have Here A5. MoonboyB6. The Best Thing I Ever Did (Was Leaving You) B7. Growing Old B8. Without You B9. Been Here And Gone
