Cliff Murphy- Bay State Lullaby (PREORDER)
This album documents me trying to make sense of major changes in my life - the end of an era (the 2003 breakup of Say ZuZu) and the start of an era (I got married, moved from a small town to the city, had two kids, and started a new career as an ethnomusicologist all during the time it took to complete this record). The album also finds me searching for my own musical voice outside of Say ZuZu. I wanted a sound built around an acoustic guitar, somewhere between Neil Young's "Out On The Weekend" and Merle Haggard's "Mama Tried." It was a time where my life deviated from the script that I thought had been written for me. I was, as the song says, happy and confused. This record helped me to sort out the confusion.
