Nick Murphy
Nick Murphy, under his pseudonym Chet Faker, was one of the first to burst out of the Soundcloud streaming world and onto the global stage with the release of his 2014 platinum selling debut LP Built on Glass. He spent the next half decade on the road, traveling with a microphone in his suitcase, recording 2019's Run Fast Sleep Naked on the fly. "Afterwards, I needed all the silence in the world to unpack things,” explains Murphy. “So I found a place. A large empty old church in upstate New York not far from the river. I had my piano shipped to the space and wheeled it into the center of the room. I’d play for hours everyday then sleep in the cold old chapel room.” The result is Music for Silence, a reflective and exploratory ten-track collection teeming with sophisticated swells, and fluid melodies borne of solitude and rebirth. Steeped in private rumination, Music for Silence serves as a salve for the weary. The songs are hushed and introspective, skeletal but saturated. The album is both offering and communion, an exercise in intimacy and expanse that inhabits the space between breaths. The Melbourne-bred singer, producer, multi-instrumentalist now resides in New York City.
