JOHN MURRY'S BREAKOUT YEAR SURGES FORWARD WITH SHUGGIE OTIS NATIONAL TOUR SUPPORT SLOT

'THE GRACELESS AGE' "ONE OF 2013'S VERY BEST" (POP MATTERS)

TAPING NPR PERFORMANCE OCT 5, 3RD NPR SEGMENT OF THE YEAR

John Murry will add a national opening slot for Shuggie Otis to a list that culminates in his status as a breakout act in 2013: NPR "World Café Next" artist and a "breakout" (NPR Here & Now); sold out UK shows; 5-star reviews in the Guardian and MOJO; playing festivals in the UK and California; a Weir Here taping curated by Bob Weird; raves from MTV Hive, Black Book, Wall Street Journal, Esquire, Daytrotter, American Songwriter, San Jose Mercury, and Baeble Music; and signing with Windish Agency. He will also tape NPR's Beale Street Caravan performance show during a headlining performance in his former hometown of Memphis, TN, October 5. It'll be his third NPR taping of the year.

Most recently, Pop Matters named 'The Graceless Age' "one of 2013's very best records so far."
