Chris Murphy

Chris Murphy is touring solo violinist and singer who performs original Folk, Blues, Celtic, Swing, Americana and Gypsy music. His unique blend of originals and traditional folkloric music make for a very entertaining and diverse show. His sets include a variety of singing, fiddling, and live looping with poignant, plainspoken songs of myth, magic, and mislaid love. Chris is a consummate entertainer. 

“Both a wily, charismatic performer and a fire-breathing virtuoso of the violin, Chris Murphy crams more musical mileage into a short set than most players do in an entire tour. Whether it’s through film-noirish atmospheres, joyfully bent traditional folk tunes, or belly-up to-the-bar blues, Murphy does the devil’s handiwork on four strings with a winning presence and a gypsy’s knack for crossing all musical terrains.”
