Beatboy Productions proudly presents Chris Murray New Zealand Tour 2010. Chris Murray is a unique force on todays music scene. As leader of influential Canadian ska group King Apparatus, Chris earned a strong reputation as a dynamic performer and gifted songwriter. Upon the bands breakup, he relocated to Los Angeles, emerging as a solo artist with his debut album The 4-Track Adventures Of Venice Shoreline Chris. This charmingly lo-fi collection of home recordings won high praise for its finely crafted tunes and the raw sincerity of its vintage production. Five albums and many thousands of miles later, Chris has become established as one of ska musics most unique, earnest and respected artists. In addition to his busy schedule of live appearances throughout North America, Japan, Europe and South America, Chris finds time for a remarkable array of collaborative efforts. Chris has co-written with and produced albums for Montreals Planet Smashers and eclectic NYC supergroup Da Whole Thing. His writing credits have also appeared on releases by Hepcat, The Slackers, Westbound Train, and Neville Staple of The Specials. Most recently, his classic song We Do The Ska was covered by highly popular UK group The King Blues. Life has led Chris down a musical path to the very roots of reggae music. From trading songs on acoustic guitar with boogie-ska pioneer Laurel Aitken and singing with Caribbean bandleader Carlos Malcolm & His Afro-Jamaican Rhythms, to jamming with The Specials in a basement club and recording with Jamaicas original drums and bass masters, Lloyd Knibb and Lloyd Brevett, Chris has served his apprenticeship with the finest musicians connected with the genre. Chris backed Prince Buster on harmonica for a rare US live appearance at the Sierra Nevada World Music Festival. Chris hosted Bluebeat Lounge at Hollywoods Knitting Factory for seven years. The weekly concert series, focusing on reggae and ska, showcased a diverse range of top quality music and served as home base for the thriving Los Angeles scene. He is also touring Australia. Please check out Everyday Formula for more detail and his tour dates in Australia. www.everydayformula.com.au This is his first time to land on Aotearoa. He is very excited to come to NZ to play gigs. It will be a great tour! * myspace.com/chrismurray * facebook.com/event.php?eid=159098504112889&ref=mf |
