Todd Murray, aka Sincerely, Iris, is an accomplished Singer-Songwriter and Composer living in Richmond, Virginia. His songs were featured on CBC and WGN's "Bellevue" starring Anna Paquin, and in the movie "A Movement of Movement." His music veers between Bluesy Rock (The White Stripes, The Black Keys, and The Breaking Bad theme), and Folky Acoustic Ballads (Gregory Alan Isakov, Josh Ritter, and Jeff Buckley). Sincerely, Iris has a sound that can be summed up as “road trip music” - a style that’s always changing and always moving along!
This driving tune starts out slowly with an organ and fingerpicked guitar. It builds into a percussive folk song about living for many lifetimes and still not understanding love. The song is actually about the life of Mark Twain, but could be used for any road trip and/or love story. Male Vocals, Americana, Americana
This is a mournful slow burn of a song with bluesy southern acoustic slide guitar drenched in reverb. It contains a male main vocal and female backup vocals. But they switch registers frequently throughout the song. The title is almost the dark version of when Dorothy says it in The Wizard of Oz. Female Vocals, Blues, Country Blues
This an acoustic dark love song that was inspired by the life of Bonnie and Clyde. This would work well for any stage of a relationship, as the story progresses from simple beginnings to the tragic end. The organ rings out in the background and slowly gets more menacing as the song progresses, Male Vocals, Singer/Songwriter, Folk Singer-Songwriter
This bluesy song plunges forward with slide guitar and heavy bass. A reverb-drenched foot stomp keeps the pace throughout. Would be great in a revenge scene or a horror movie. The falsetto chorus adds sensitivity to the whole experience. It's a pretty song with sharp edges. Male Vocals, Blues, Chicago Blues
This is a spooky song that starts out with falsetto voice and acoustic guitar in the style of Jeff Buckley. It builds slowly as piano chords quietly hint at the lush but rolling chorus that is to come. It's all about falling in love with trouble and the consequences of doing so. Male Vocals, Singer/Songwriter, Indie Singer-Songwriter
This contemplative road trip song visits past memories and proving the people wrong that didn't believe in you. A jazzy acoustic guitar starts things off until a percussive strum pattern takes over. The visuals from the highway continue to affect the narrator throughout. Slide guitar quietly plays. Male Vocals, Singer/Songwriter, Contemp Singer/Songwriter
