Neil Murray

Warumpi Band founding member hits Bruns with “Still Here by My Side” tour!

Maverick song man Neil Murray was a founding member of the pioneering Warumpi Band, which in the 1980’s penetrated mainstream Australia with the iconic anthems My Island Home and Blackfella Whitefella. He is now a respected singer/songwriter: Good Light in Broome, Whispering Casuarina, Lights of Hay and Broken Land are just some of the superb songs from the string of remarkable albums he has released. His latest album is The Telling, reviewed by Rhythms magazine as “singular and powerful… another fine collection befitting his immense reputation and legacy.”

Accolades include the 2017 Port Fairy Folk Festival Artist of the year, the 1995 APRA Song of the Year award for My Island Home. The latter, plus Jailanguru Pakarnu (Out from Jail — a 1983 co-write with Sammy Butcher in the Luritja language) have been selected into the National Film and Television Sound Archive’s Sounds of Australia Series.

Neil’s songwriting is diverse and influential. Artists such as Mary Black, Jimmy Little, Missy Higgins, Powderfinger and Liz Stringer have recorded his songs. Always engaging live, Neil Murray’s work has contributed substantially to Australia’s contemporary music heritage.
