There is more than one artist under this name:

1. John Murphy is a British film composer from the city of Liverpool. He began composing music for films in the early 1990s, working on several successful British movies including Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (1998) and Snatch (2000).

Since 2000, Murphy has been based in Los Angeles. From here, he has worked with some of the industry’s most respected and luminary filmmakers, including Danny Boyle, Stephen Frears, Guy Ritchie, Matthew Vaughn and Michael Mann, producing prominent and diverse scores such as 28 Days Later, Miami Vice, Sunshine and Kick-Ass.

In between films he has composed and produced tracks for commercials, for Nike, Audi, Reebok and Apple.


In 2010 he completed the score for Kick-Ass, and after a two-year hiatus, is now working on several non-film projects.

2. John Murphy is an Australian-born percussionist who has played with many artists since the early 1980s while living in both Australia and the UK. From being a member of groups such as The Associates and SPK, working extensively with artists like Current 93, Death in June and Boyd Rice, and having many solo projects, his work has covered a wide range. For a while in the late 1990s/early 2000s, he went by the name of Jonh Murphy (to avoid confusion with another artist). On Chaos, he is helped by Roger Smith, and last but not least David Tibet of Current 93. This trio actually where Dogs Blood Order, the band preceding Current 93.
