Hubert Murray

Irish raconteur, Hubert Murray, has a voice bursting from the soul. Growing up in a house of mix-tapes and stacks of folk & blues records, he sifted through each one, de-composing their melodies and lyrics. His distorted folk sound embodies all that is best in modern roots music, combining soul, energy and storytelling. Hubert's songs feature lost loves, inner demons, compulsive liars & day-dreamers, rounded out with a masterful hand over the fretboard. His sound bows a head to the masters of melody and word such as; John Martyn, Beck, Laura Marling and Jeff Buckley.

Best known as the frontman of two genre bending folk and bluegrass bands; Hot Rock Pilgrims and Lands End Bluegrass Band. With relentless touring of Ireland, the UK and Europe, playing everything from folk clubs to the Royal Southbank Centre London, Cambridge Folk Festival, Black Deer, Isle of White Festival as well as main stage slots of European festivals. They gained the reputation as some of the finest players & performers on the bluegrass scene.

Hubert has already released 1 solo EP, 2 band EPs and 1 album. He has worked with producers such as Gavin Glass (Lisa Hannigan, Paul Brady, and Villagers). Joe McGrath of Hellfire Studios (Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, The Coronas)., Jake Rousham (Nick Cave, Roger Daltrey, and Snow Patrol) and Josh Clarke (Kate Rusby, Damien O'Kane & Ron Bloc).
