Chet Faker Unveils First Tune As Nick Murphy, Will Play Laneway 2017

Staff Writer

This one's a departure from his old stuff

More Chet Faker Chet Faker

Having announced a reinvention from his alias Chet Faker last week, Nick Murphy has revealed his first new song this morning, a track called Fear Less.

The track — a rocky, atmospheric slow-burn that brings to mind Radiohead — coincides with the announcement that Murphy will join AB Original as an act on next year's Laneway Festival, great news if you're a Murphy fan hankering for a chance to hear some of his new tunes.

On the topic of Laneway, they'll be dropping their full line-up tomorrow morning at 8.15am so stay tuned!

Head here to check out Fear Less.
