Pete Murray - Summer at Eureka

From the moment the funky piano riff opens Pete Murray’s third album, Summer At Eureka, you sense he’s coming from a different place. When the drums kick in and the electric guitars bite on that song, ‘Chance To Say Goodbye’, you know for sure. There’s a bright, positive atmosphere to Summer At Eureka that reflects Murray’s state of mind as the proud father of a young family.

And fully in control of his career, producing his own music for the first time in the studio he has built on his rural property in northern New South Wales. It’s there on ‘You Pick Me Up’, first single from the album and one of the most upbeat songs Murray has ever recorded.

‘You took away the rain,’ Murray sings in that honey-smooth vocal delivery that has helped make him one of Australia’s best-loved songwriters. ‘You lift me up to the greatest that I’ve been.’
