Murphy's Lore

This is the story of the little rock and roll combo that could. You might be familiar with the work of Courtney Murphy, the intrepid piano player and singer who appeared on Idol in between other engagements and did very nicely for himself, third in fact. You might have even heard of his brother Chris Murphy, also using the Australian Idol method of getting noticed by a wider audience for his own evil purposes.

The band have released 3 albums including People in Grass Houses, Best Laid Plans, and Universe Conspires. All three albums are able to be purchased through the bands home page www.murphyslore.com .

Chris Murphy, the band's rocker, managed to get into the top 4 of Australian Idol 2006, one spot less than his bro. He was described as the true performer of Australian Idol 2006, his solo performances included Holy Grail, Play that Funky Music, No more Lonely Nights and more. Chris is the lead singer of Murphy's Lore, and basically holds the band together. Chris is married and is a father.

Courtney Murphy, the bands piano player, is also no stranger to the Idol scene, coming a close third in 2004, Courtney often performs at the foundry with the band, and is recently married.
