  • The Story of: Lean In For a Kiss / Hymn For Her
    May 11 2026

    We're back with a new format for 2026. I'm Brendan Murphy—join me and Greg Canty as I open the Songwriter's Diary to bridge the gap between new music by my band The 4 Of Us and the songs that shaped our path.

    It's a conversation about where we are, where we've been, and the musical journey that connects it all.

    NOW: Breaking down the new single, Lean In For a Kiss.

    THEN: A deep dive into the Man Alive ballad, Hymn For Her.

  • Thank you Moya
    Apr 14 2026

    I'm so sad to hear of the passing of the legendary Moya Brennan of Clannad.

    She was a monumental figure in Irish music, and I am just so grateful that I had the chance to chat with her on this podcast.

    To celebrate her life and incredible career I am reposting that conversation as a tribute to a woman whose voice defined a generation.

    Thank you for everything Moya

  • The Making of Crescent Nights - Part 4: Bringing it Home
    Jul 28 2025
    Join me and Greg Canty (Win Happy podcast) for the final installment of our four-part series on putting together The 4 Of Us' latest album, Crescent Nights. The final numbers—they're the crucial part that makes you wonder if you should listen again, or maybe just go for a walk. We dive into the album's closing songs, and the journey from youthful optimism to older (and not necessarily wiser) reflections. On "I Know You Know Me So Well", the song embraced its ramshackle rhythm section, and I had to push my vocal limits higher and lower than I'm used to. "Miracle Every Morning" closes the album as a thank you to that rare piece of solid ground in a shaky world, usually found next to the person who holds you steady. Beyond the music, we talk collaborative chaos and why a thick skin was a necessary requirement in the studio. The final piece of the puzzle: Discover how we brought Crescent Nights home. Brendan
