Bio
Centered on the songs of veteran songwriter Neil Bennett,
with acoustic guitars blending with the cello stylings of Irina Grunberg,
tempting murphy’s sound is a wonderful blend of folk, roots, and pop music
sounding classic but contemporary at the same time. Bennett’s musical roots go
back to the halcyon folk era of London, Ontario in the 70’s and 80’s where he
played alongside such folk luminaries as Valdy and David Bradstreet. He loves
the craft of songwriting, blending music and poetry to make statements and
observations about life, love and all of the struggles, the triumphs, the joy,
the tragedy and yes the comedy of our daily existence on this planet.
Grunberg’s roots are in classical music but she loves the challenge of playing
alongside Bennett adding layers and atmosphere to his musical creations.
tempting murphy….a unique sound….songs that soothe and move you.
