Hornchurch, UK

Blending a fusion of jangle pop, doo wop, indie, glam rock, alternative, grunge, new wave, Motown, surf and blues with psychedelic and avant garde ideas of sound effects and recordings of everyday sounds, Ricky Murray is quite the concoction. Tied up with lyrics that pertain to a songwriter that metaphorically wears his heart on BOTH his sleeves, it makes for spellbinding listening. He’s not pretentious at all for writing his bio in the third person and saying all this. When he’s THAT good, he has carte blanche to speak in the third person and assume the effects his songs have on the listener. Since he started playing guitar and writing songs in January 2002 he hasn’t looked back, unless it’s to the artists who inspire him to pen his deeply charged laments, all of which has led to the works of genius you can hear here. Hear, hear to that.
