Father Murphy set for European tour dates
16 February 2014

List All News - Back
Born near Venice, Northern Italy, Father Murphy are a powerful sonic force with three albums and a plethora of EPs and limited releases under their belt. Over the years, they have become one of the most mysterious and enigmatic musical entities coming out of Italy, part of the community that Simon Reynolds called the new "Italian Occult Psychedelia".

They are back again, and this time their sermon is delivered in an even more bewildering manner. "Pain Is On Our Side Now", released on Aagoo Records/Boring Machines back in January, is straddled across two single-sided 10"s, each containing two movements and intended to be played simultaneously - or maybe not. Father Murphy are not the types to preach the rights and wrongs of participating in their immersive ceremony.

As part of their support for their intriguing new release, Father Murphy will be playing a series of live dates across the UK, starting on 24th February in Brighton.
