Róisín Murphy

About

Róisín Murphy isn’t just a musician; she's a sonic chameleon, constantly morphing and reinventing herself while maintaining a fiercely individual artistic core. Emerging from the ashes of Moloko, the Sheffield-based electronic duo she formed in the mid-90s, Murphy quickly established herself as a force beyond genre. Her sound, a potent cocktail of disco, house, art-pop, and experimental electronica, is both deeply rooted in dancefloor euphoria and intellectually stimulating. Murphy’s solo career, launched with the critically acclaimed “Ruby Blue” in 2005, signaled her intention to break free from convention. Each subsequent album, from the glam-infused “Overpowered” to the Italian house-inspired "Róisín Machine," has been a deliberate departure, a sonic adventure. Her collaborations, ranging from Maurice Fulton to DJ Koze, further highlight her restless creativity and commitment to pushing boundaries. A true original, Murphy’s impact extends beyond music. Her theatrical stage presence, bold fashion choices, and willingness to embrace the absurd have solidified her status as a style icon and an influential figure in contemporary culture. With recent projects like "Hit Parade" proving she's still at the peak of her powers, Róisín Murphy continues to redefine what it means to be a pop artist in the 21st century.
