Arklow, Republic of Ireland (2004 – present)

Róisín Murphy (pronounced roe-sheen) originally from Arklow, Republic of Ireland gained fame with Mark Brydon as the lead vocalist for UK electronic duo Moloko.

In addition to her work with Moloko, Murphy has contributed her vocals to the works of other artists including Handsome Boy Modeling School and Boris Dlugosch, for whom she sang on the track, Never Enough, which became a huge club hit.

After three additional albums and a remix project with Brydon, Murphy recorded her first official solo material in 2004 with producer Matthew Herbert, who had previously done remixes for Moloko. She released her debut album, Ruby Blue, in June 2005 in the UK on Echo Records. “Ruby Blue” produced two singles “If We’re In Love” and “Sow Into You”

She released her second album Overpowered, with 13 new songs on 15 October 2007. On 10 January 2008, Overpowered received a nomination for the Choice Music Prize in the Republic of Ireland; the award is given each year to an Irish artist who has proved to produce a critically acclaimed album. Also Overpowered ended at #30 on Metacritic Best of 2007 albums with a score of 82.

Her version of “Slave to Love” by Bryan Ferry is featured in the 2008 Gucci commercial starring actor James Franco. The single “Let Me Know” was produced by Groove Armada.
