Ellis Murphy has amassed a cult following with a timeless brand of story telling, through his songs that are both current and fresh but also reminiscent of a time when troubadours were the voice of a generation.

Born in Liverpool, England, on April 12th, 2004, Ellis Murphy spent most of his childhood in a theatre, on a stage. This is evident within his recent live performances which notably adopt theatrical elements (when there is a band backing Ellis). Another notable element of the live performances is the heavy influence of early English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh and American Folk music, which is most evident during the solo acoustic performances. 

Reference to beat poets such as Allen Ginsburg and Jack Kerouac, Punk Poets like John Cooper Clarke, Shane MacGowan and playwrights such as William Shakespeare, Willy Russell, Oscar Wilde and Owen Sheers, (of whom are just some examples) all play a part in the creative process for Ellis, be it writing or performing live. 

As an emerging artist, Ellis Murphy has played in coffee shops, live music clubs, castles and concert halls around the UK since his debut performance in 2022, with most recently undergoing a string of bi monthly shows titled: ‘See What I See’, as well as various appearances in between. 

A live performance from Ellis Murphy is not one to miss. With cutting edge, forthright lyrics that shine a veridical light on many of the inequality’s of the modern world as well  as Ellis’ own life and experiences. Ellis is backed by an inflexible group of the United Kingdom’s finest musicians who accompany Ellis during most of his live performances.
