Honest and intelligent, the acoustic–driven pop-rock of Scott Moses Murray takes a fresh, imaginative look at the human condition.
Murray has worked as a volunteer in Africa, South America, Eastern Europe and the jungles of Papua New Guinea building a school, a hospital, a bridge or simply hanging out with orphans. He brings his experience in other cultures to his audience through his music, whether in the political awareness of ‘Belgrade Station’ or the African rhythms of ‘Leaving the Night’.
Murray performs solo with acoustic and electric guitar or with a full band. His rich, inviting voice captures the crowd from the first note. An accomplished guitarist, Murray delivers song after masterfully crafted song with passion and power balanced by humorous, insightful talk between tunes.
Shortly after moving to Nashville from South Carolina, Murray met hit songwriter John Mallory, who soon became his mentor and collaborator. The two co-wrote the songs for Murray's most recent record, Stutter, and recorded them with the help of some of Nashville’s most creative musicians, including Ben Folds producer John Mark Painter and Hank III drummer Sean McWilliams.
With promotion from Tinderbox Music, Stutter charted at radio stations across the country and continues to receive regular airplay at hundreds of college and independent stations nationally and internationally.
Murray has visited stations across the US and in Central America to provide live on-air broadcasts. He currently lives in Minneapolis.
