Murray’s latest single ‘I Am Fire’ is a moving ode to resilience, accompanied by a melody that blends powerful emotions with tranquil arrangements. Murray speaks of the track’s creation, revealing his excitement about a new guitar that helped shape the song’s sound. “I just bought a Gibson 1971 Classical guitar before I recorded ‘I Am Fire’ and I knew this guitar had to be on this song. I love the classical guitar sound Rodriguez uses on his recordings, and it’s that same 60s/70s classical guitar sound that I was going for. The guitar created a real mood on the song that works well with the lyrics,” he shares.
The release of this single marks a new chapter for Murray as he prepares for his largest tour ever. Fans across Australia will have the chance to witness Pete Murray’s raw talent up close, as he takes the stage solo with just his acoustic guitar and an impressive setlist of his beloved hits. This extensive tour, which starts in May and concludes in September 2025, will reach new regions and cities, some of which Pete has never visited before.
The 55-date tour, which includes a mix of regional and capital city performances, kicks off on 9 May in Darwin and will see Murray visit a wide range of markets across the country, including areas in the Northern Territory, Victoria, Tasmania, Queensland, New South Wales, and Western Australia. The tour will wrap up on September 7 in the Blue Mountains, marking a truly special conclusion to what is sure to be an unforgettable journey.
Tickets for the solo acoustic tour will go on sale to the general public on 21 March at 10 AM local time, with presale tickets available starting 18 March. Fans can purchase tickets via Murray’s official website.
Pete’s upcoming solo tour follows the success of his 2024 single Wouldn’t It Be Good, adding to the excitement surrounding this next phase of his career.
As one of Australia’s most successful singer-songwriters, I Am Fire represents an emotional milestone in Murray’s musical journey, and the upcoming tour promises to be an equally meaningful experience for his devoted fans.
