Alexi Murdoch

Alexi Murdoch is a singer-songwriter that was born in London, but grew up in many different countries, such as Scotland, Greece, and France. He was born to a Greek father and a Scottish-French mother in London, the family moving to Greece when Alexi was 10. He moved to the United States in 1998 to attend Duke University. He later moved to Los Angeles to see about a girl and this is what sparked his career. It was a DJ from KCRW in Santa Monica who first discovered Murdoch and started playing his music on the station. His songs have been featured in many television shows and a couple of big screen movies. Murdoch has been compared to the likes of Nick Drake and John Martyn with the feel of Cat Stevens or even Gordon Lightfoot. He is slated to release Towards the Sun, his 3rd album, sometime in early 2011. This video is "Orange Sky" from his 2nd release, Time Without Consequence.
