This is the debut single of a really talented songwriter. GREG MURRAY is an Irish man living in London; he writes wonderful tracks of classic, acoustic guitar pop. Songs that so far had only been listened by very close friends of the author. We really wish this single will help to widen his audience as these songs really deserve it.
You just have to listen to the opening title track and will surrender to his charms: "Go honey" is an instant hit constructed over a fragile bossa-nova drum track, but thats where the Brazilian connection ends. In fact GREG MURRAY is much closer to sixties folk, to SIMON AND GARFUNKEL, NEIL YOUNG, to the angst of RED HOUSE PAINTERS or NICK DRAKE, to ELLIOT SMITH or the vocal harmonies of KINGS OF CONVENIENCE.
Timeless acoustic pop created in Gregs bedroom with the careful touch of an artisan, and to be placed next to the best guitar pop acts ever.
Relaxed songs without anything that breaks the smooth beauty created by Gregs vocals and guitar, playing a main role in songs like "Edge" -another endearing, catchy track; the atmospheric "No pretending" and the shy "Camera" complete this much more than remarkable debut.
Pretty soon GREG MURRAY will release two new CD-singles and a whole album in prestigious U.S. label Bus Stop, home of bands such as VELVET CRUSH, SNEETCHES, HONEYBUNCH… ; perfect partners for the acoustic moods of GREG MURRAY.
