About
Lee Murdock has uncovered a boundless body of music and stories in his home region, grounded in the work song tradition. From the rugged days of lumberjacks and wooden sailing schooners, Murdock comes alongside with original ballads of contemporary commerce and revelry in the grand folk style.
Noted as a fluent instrumentalist on the six- and twelve-string guitars, Lee Murdock’s musical influences span fifteen generations, from 17th-century Irish harp music to Scott Joplin guitar rags, and embrace the blues, freshwater shanties, original songs, and ballads. Bringing a deeper understanding of the folk process, his repertoire combines historical research with contemporary insights.
