Pete Murray
De Oosterpoort
Trompsingel 27, 9724 DA GroningenWith over 1.2 million albums sold and 17 ARIA Award nominations, Pete Murray is one of Australia's most enduring musical icons. After two decades of dominating the charts with three consecutive number 1 albums, Murray has entered a bold new phase of creative freedom.
His 2003 breakthrough album, ‘Feeler’, became the defining soundtrack of a generation, remaining in the charts for over eighty weeks. Since then, his unique blend of acoustic rock and soulful folk has remained a staple in the Australian cultural landscape. His album ‘Longing’, released in late 2025, marks a milestone as his first fully independent release in over two decades—a move that allowed him to regain control over his masters and his creative narrative. The album, ten years in the making, combines his signature acoustic warmth with raw, synthesizer-driven textures and hypnotic rhythms.
Whether he chooses a stripped-back solo acoustic set or performs his extensive repertoire with a full band, he remains a world-class storyteller with an unparalleled gift for connecting with his audience. Murray’s live performances continue to be a masterclass in both intimacy and compelling, anthemic energy.
