SINGLE PREMIERE: Murray Darling 'Leave Me This Way'

Staff Writer

'Darling’s rough, ocker vocals tear through the dirty garage melodies.'

Sydney lad Murray Darling is exploding onto the scene with his debut single Leave Me This Way, premiering today on theMusic.com.au.

There’s a deep Australiana thread that runs through the single as Darling’s rough, ocker vocals tear through the dirty garage melodies. Lyrics that talk about the skyline of the Paramatta River only strengthen the uniquely Aussie tune.

Murray Darling is the project of singer/ songwriter BJ Smith who, when performing live round out his huge sound with a full band.

Leave Me This Way is released with the B-Side track Sick Boy and was featured on the Psyched As. 2016-2017 mixtape.
