MURROW'S BOYS: Murrow's Boys

James, Greg, Ken, and Greg blend shards of folk, blues, rock and a shred of country into their own sound. It’s part Up North and backwoods, part heartland and ghost town, part city streets and urban grit. The result is a minimalistic sound full of acoustic vibes.

The lyrics of Murrow’s Boys plunge into society, exposing its foibles, quirks and quandaries, showing exactly how it affects just plain folks. They pack listeners in an old Ford and trek along Michigan’s forgotten roads and well-traveled highways, through the unforgiving city and sleepy jerkwater towns, and into the lives of men and women who struggle to make sense of life as they know it. And lucky for the passengers along for the ride, Murrow’s Boys don’t need a map – even when entering parts unknown.

Hello, after an unfortunate hiatus, the reasons for which are probably best not gone into here, we finally have some new music on the AUK MySpace site. For your listening pleasure this month we offer Nathan Oliver, Conrad Ford, the irrepressible Todd Snider and the delightful Beccy Owen. Don't forget too, for those of you within striking distance of Leicester, Electric Dustbowl 2 on 19 September.
