Google singer songwriter and the first name you’ll find is Samantha Murphy. For over five years, Samantha has been establishing herself as not only a singer songwriter, but the place to go to hear other great singer songwriters. With her popular show The Highway Girl, Samantha features a different artist from a different city and venue each week as she tours. Past guests include Aimee Mann, Martha Wainwright, Elvis Perkins, Cary Brothers, Teitur, Inara George and Juliana Hatfield. The program has been downloaded millions of times. The Highway Girl was one of only ten companies accepted into the prestigious Techstars summer program out of 400 applicants in 2008. She was mentored by some of the finest entrepreneurs in the world.

Samantha’s independently released debut CD, somewhere between starving & stardom, was chosen as a top 10 for Village Voice’s Annual Pazz & Jop Poll by Michael Ross, who calls it “…a perfect pop record.” The album contains an all star band consisting of the rhythm section from Alanis Morissette’s multi-platinum debut Jagged Little Pill and Kanye West’s Cellist.

Performing professionally since she was six years old, Samantha has worked with Willie Nelson, Michael McDonald, Five for Fighting, Kylie Minogue and Erikah Badu as well as having appeared on TV shows like The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

Samantha is currently recording her follow up album with Grammy Winning Producer Ray Kennedy.
