Olivia Murphy's (@aivilomurphy) joyous jazz orchestra EP 'Somewhere, Not So Far Away' is out TODAY 🎶🔥
Stream the record on Bandcamp: oliviamurphy.bandcamp.com/al…
ALT “That’s why the EP is called ‘Somewhere, Not So Far Away’… It’s storybook-sounding. Something that’s personal, but you can place yourself in it (but not quite); something mysterious, that’s also fictional-sounding.” - Olivia Murphy
The first OMJO EP is out today! Recorded live at @BMusic_Ltd and featuring 4 new compositions and 21 wonderful musicians - this project is a dream come true for me & I really hope you enjoy!
