NATALIE MURPHY

Natalie Murphy is a fiddle playing front woman living in Nashville who embodies all of those traits. Born and raised in Minneapolis, she picked up her first fiddle at the age of four. A childhood full of classical music study, rock improv at smokey bar shows, years of studio work, teenage songwriting exploration and many, many spins of her favorite Vince Gill records led her to where she is today: Nashville.

 

Music City has treated Natalie well. Since moving there in 2011, she has performed on the Grand Ol' Opry with numerous artists, sung and played all over the world, recorded on major label albums, and has a songwriting credit on country star Cam's recently released album, Untamed. 

 

Besides her music, Natalie is the essence of country: She lives on a horse farm in the middle of nowhere, north of Nashville, and has been known to ride her horse to the mailbox during songwriting breaks.
