In "4402 Cadillac
Ave." , Samantha's utilization of open chord & suspended configurations
& progressions , plays out like a fresh & wide open vista. Her Vocals
remind one of Sheryl Crow to some extent ; Yet the latter does not possess
the singular vision that is a trademark innate quality of Samantha Murphy's
music 'Far Away" is
a more reflective & melancholy tune that speaks of the world weariness
of a grown soul that perceives the beauty of love , amidst the pain &
frailty of human imperfection. Sometimes the best thing we can do for
ourselves in a relationship that is going nowhere , is to exit a dead
end & get as far away from the other individual as possible. For our own
sanity & theirs 'I Am You" is
an atmospheric song augmented with electric & acoustic guitar passages
, coupled with subtle synthesis & Vox backgrounds. A splash of Banjo sets
a scenic stage of emotion & lyrical insight. After all , Are we not all
sailing on this blue orb together , traversing a sea of time 'I Wanna Go
Home" variates with a AAA-Pop-Rock edge & reads like an audio diary. Samantha
Murphy has a breadth & diversity in her work that shines like a dazzling
gem in a prism of grey walls & urban mundane landscape In the delightful
song "Come Back To You" , the listener's senses are hypnotized
by a heartfelt & engrossing longing , that essentially melts the coldest
of forlorn hearts. Complimented by backwards-gated electric guitar &
a splash of subtle synthesis , this song is a strong & wonderous piece
of music that sends shivers down the spine. A real gem of a tune indeed
It is of note
that Samantha has worked with artists such as Crowded House , INXS &
Paul Rodgers to name a few. Her entrancing voice & beguiling charm , emote
her magnetic qualities into her sonic art tales Samantha Murphy
is at a periphery in her career & she only shows the tip of the iceberg.
Where she goes from here only heaven knows. Because the future belongs
to those who dream There is no barrier
, to a rising star on the horizon & Samantha Murphy exhibits intrinsic
characteristics , that are blinding in their potential to shine towards
the meridian forever |
