Murphykid – Breaking Bread (Yucatan Records)

| Murphykid - Breaking Bread |
Release Date: Out Now
You know when you’ve had a hell
of a day and you get home and its chaos all you want to do is curl up in a
chair and wrap yourself up in a song or a bottle? Well, this is the song to
wrap yourself up in when you haven’t got a bottle. Yorkshire lad Murphykid
sounds like someone making music in the bleak wastelands of the
American-Canadian border which, depending on which part of Yorkshire he’s based
in, might be accurate. Nevertheless, ‘Breaking Bread’ has a real and tangible
warmth to the acoustic guitar notes and that warmth is given power by some loping
drums, searing guitar notes and then there’s that voice. Murphykid has a
tenderness, almost a vulnerability but with the flick of a vocal cord he can
come across all mid-Western confidence and dashing looks. There is, seemingly,
quite a back story to this tune and its writer but rather than regale you with
that I think you should just enjoy the music, wrap yourself up in it and be
grateful that today is over. Tomorrow might be better, we can but hope. I mean,
today we found a Yorkshire Sufjan Stevens so it’s not all bad, right?
