Bradley Murphy

Cape Breton

Bradley Murphy is a Gaelic singer, and multi-instrumental musician from East Bay, Unama’ki – Cape Breton Island. A Gaelic speaker himself, he proudly showcases the relevance, beauty, and power of traditional songs: an art form that has been passed down carefully through family and community hands. His most recent album, Beul, was nominated for traditional album of the year at both the Canadian Folk Music awards and at Nova Scotia Music Week. Bradley has experience performing in festivals and concerts across the province, country, and beyond. However, his true expression is at home in Cape Breton, coming to life in the square dance halls, small Gaelic concerts, and house ceilidhs. Bradley will be performing in duos with Màiri Chaimbeul and Mary Beth McCarty, and in a trio with McCarty and Donald MacLennan.
