Rising Warner Music Nashville recording artist Patrick Murphy is set to release his debut EP, Half The Story, on July 29 (PRE-ORDER HERE). The six song set highlights Murphy’s signature pairing of soaring vocals and compelling melodies driven by masterful Billy Joel-esque piano riffs. He showcases this unique sound on the song “Blue Jeans, Blue Eyes, Blue Skies” released today (LISTEN HERE), which follows the project’s anthemic lead release, “Momentum” (LISTEN HERE). He’ll be performing these and other unreleased tracks at this year’s CMA Fest in Nashville (CLICK HERE for more details).
Murphy was born with a musical state of mind. The Perham, Minnesota native began honing his piano skills at the age of three, going on to play in front of his first audiences at the local church. The chapel turned into restaurants as Murphy added singing to his craft, developing a style influenced by the likes of Keith Urban, Elton John, Brett Eldredge, Journey and more.
Now, two decades after first sitting down at the piano bench, the 23-year-old has discovered his own sound. Self-described as Rascal Flatts and Dan + Shay meet The Script and Andy Grammer, Murphy is set to strike a chord with listeners. The past several years have already seen massive career milestones for the young Nashville-based musician, from landing his first publishing and major label record deals to opening for artists such as Maren Morris, Kane Brown, Kip Moore, Chris Janson and more. This is just the beginning as Murphy prepares to share with the world his melodic soul.
Murphy is managed by Alicia Pruitt of Red Light Management.
