Brian Murphy

Vocals, Guitar, Saxophone

Born and bred on the mean streets of Grenagh, Brian turned to music instead of the local gang territorial war. He cut his musical teeth in bands like Blue Lampshade, The Quick Pennies and Live As Kings. His main influences are Tom Waits, Van Morrison, Rory Gallagher, Acdc and Eric Clapton.

He now prefers to listen to Tay Tay (Taylor Swift) and Beebs (Justin Beiber), people say he hasn’t been right since his accident. A member since the birth of Blue Steel, Brian plays the part of Lead vocals, rhythm guitar, sax and general handsomeness. Fun Fact!! Brian qualified for the 2014 live auditions of The Voice however when his rider demands were not met he didn’t show up. Offstage Brian works in construction and likes to spend his downtime surfing and dressing up as different Pokemon, he claims to this day that “you’ve got to catch them all”..
