Bio
Phil Murray and the Boys From Bury are almost a legend in the north of England. If you haven’t heard the music you know the name. But they’re not from Bury and the singers’ name isn’t Murray. They deal in an infectious brand of punk-infused witty guitar pop inspired by life in their home town of Rotherham, a town which requires a sense of humour! Songs like ‘I Can’t Stop Eating Trees’, ‘Shurrup Mi Dads In Bed’ and ‘Dying Turtle’ (the latter inducing the audience to spontainioulsly get on their backs and wriggle their arms and legs in the air) have been received with great enthusiasm from audiences all across the UK. The line-up comprises Phil on lead vocal, Craig on bass, Rich on drums and Dally on guitar. The band have been playing together for a number of years both as headliners and also as support to the likes of The Damned, Uk Subs, Dr. Feelgood and John Otway.

You can read a review of our recent recordings in Sandman Magazine
Here's a recent review of our songs by DJ PUNKEE DUCK (Gig Organiser/DJ/Promoter/Reviews)...
"With a real sense of workin' class roots, this four-piece punk/skank band offers us a collection of vocally witty, fast paced morsal of tracks covering things im sure we all can relate to, ie: eating trees, not wakin up ya dad and being 21 again. Sounds like: Stranglers/Clash Etc...Trees starts off ambiently breakin into guitar and pacey drum, the vocal witt is instantly....funny, back 2 basics rhyme...Shurrup brought back mems of sneakin me mates in n out when i was a lad...hovis music begins...and 21 again well made me wanna be.........17? Morsals are never enough though this trail of crumbs better lead ta some more cookies..."
