Peter Murphy Concert Tickets

Peter John Murphy (born 11 July 1957, near Northampton, England, raised in Wellingborough, England), is the vocalist of the rock group Bauhaus who later went on to release a number of solo albums, such as Deep and Love Hysteria. By 1983, Bauhaus broke up and Murphy went on to new projects not involving Bauhaus members Kevin Haskins, David J, or Daniel Ash. After some brief dabbling with acting and dance - including a slightly odd televised performance to Bauhaus's "Hollow Hills" - he soon formed Dalis Car with Mick Karn, the bass player from Japan.

Five years after Bauhaus'1983 split, it seemed asthough frontman Peter Murphyhas lost whatever momentumhe might have had. Dalis Car,his collaborative 1984 projectwith Mick Karn, was a selfindulgentdisaster, whileMurphy's first solo LP, 1986'sShould The World Fail To Fall,failed to set the world on fire.There was a lot riding on its1988 follow-up, Love Hysteria.

A former burlesque house built in 1870, Philadelphia's Trocodero Theatre, with its winding candles dotting the balcony and massive, domed roof, was the perfect place for Peter Murphy, the progenitor of goth, to present his Mr. Moonlight tour wherein he performed an all-Bauhaus set. In contrast to his more casual solo material shows, on May 10, 2013, Peter Murphy and his solo band treated the Bauhaus material with great reverence while still applying a new angle to the songs...

When Bauhaus split in 1983, it was thought that lead singer Peter Murphy would effortlessly embark on a successful solo career full of hit records. Murphy, however, chose to work with Mick Karn on the naval-gazing Dali's Car collaboration: a head on crash that killed all post-Bauhaus momentum dead. His first solo single was a rampant cover of Pere Ubu's Final Solution in 1985 and, the following year, a debut LP finally followed...

It seems like a thousand years ago that I first heard Bauhaus and the wonderfully mannered vocals of Peter Murphy. Now he is on his ninth solo album and the best features of his voice are still there along with some superb backing from his band ? I came to this album expecting to bury him but I have to praise him for an album that combines touches of the ?then? with modern passion and technique...

It used to be that casual music fans knew Peter Murphy only as the singer of Bauhaus's archetypal goth piece "Bela Lugosi's Dead." Times change, even for the undead, and since Murphy appeared in last year's Twilight Saga: Eclipse as the Cold One (a vampire, natch), horny pre- and post-pubescents now associate him with that dreadfully goth-lite world, alongside characters like Bella Swan...

Peter Murphy's solo career has a mirror in Emile Heskey's football one: on his day, full of confidence, he's a world class performer who has, on occasion, allowed self-doubt to plague his accomplishments. It's resulted in a sort of quasi-success, rather than stellar superstardom. After an appearance in Twilight: Eclipse, however, Murphy's confidence is high, making his ninth solo album a swaggering affair...

"Velocity Bird," the first song on Peter Murphy's new solo album, Ninth, kicks off promisingly, with a fat beat and a raw, distorted riff. Then Murphy opens his mouth. Doing his best impression of Iggy Pop's worst self-caricature, the former Bauhaus frontman pushes his trademark croon so far above his range, it sounds like his tonsils might pop. Fortunately, the song is over quickly. Unfortunately, it's followed by another...

Goto commentsLeave a commentShare The Not So Quiet Man For someone with a resume that includes time as leader of one of gothic rock's foundation acts, plus pretty regular tours and occasional forays in front of movie cameras since then, doesn't ex-Bauhaus frontman Peter Murphy seem musically invisible? Come on, it's wholly unfair that he only caught lightning in a bottle with the great "Cuts You Up" 21 years ago...

No, no this isn't right at all. Peter Murphy has too beautiful of a voice for this. It's a rich, honeyed baritone that can climb to a brittle yelp when necessary (with Bauhaus, say) but on this record he seemingly rejoices in the velvety gravitas of it. And why shouldn't he...
