Murnie is now set to be searchable and contactable through the modern medium of Facebook.
A sample of one of our forthcoming album tracks, Shaking A Fist At God, is now available to listen to on the music player over there – and you can also hear the full version of Trouble Is, one highlight of the Written On The Kitten E. P.
For those of you that missed our session On Pulse Community Radio’s “Under The Radar” programme, it’s being repeated twice this week.
Wednesday 1pm (GMT), Thursday 9pm.
You not only get us playing a few new songs, you also get interesting, eclectic and hard to find music presented by the delightful Michael and Raymond. Go here, click link at the bottom, or tune in 98.4.
Spring is springing and Murnie are shaking off their winter clothes…actually come to think of it these are last year’s winter clothes and they don’t half whiff. To celebrate, we’ve been tinkering around with words and music and have recently incubated a handful of newly hatched songs.
They’re still very young, but if you’re very quiet you can come and get a sneaky peak at The Racasse in Clarkston where Neil will be unveiling them with the aid of his magical piano.
Starts at 8pm, Thursday April 30th, and costs you nowt. What better way can you think of to spend a balmy spring evening?
Address: The Racasse, 14 Busby Road, Clarkston. Just past the roundabout at the toll, kinda opposite Beanscene. You can’t miss it really.
Two more samples for you to check out have now been added to the recordings page!
You never know when you might need them.

Welcome to the new website for the old Murnsters.
We hope to goodness we’ll keep this updated more regularly than the last one.
