Murdo Mitchell is a Glasgow based singer-songwriter. After the success of his debut EP ‘Stay Nocturnal’ in 2021, a record that found praise from Earmilk, CLASH and XS Noize, Mitchell returned once again with his passionate new offering ‘Ghosts.’
The title single ‘Ghosts’ from his April 2023 Album ‘Aztec Jewel’, is described by Ones To Watch as “a haunting song tells a completely different story, one where dark and brooding makes for beautiful music that lingers in our minds.”
Mitchell has a growing following, and sold out his first London show at St Pancras Church in November 2022. His headline UK tour in April 2023 was a huge success.
Mitchell’s team is rapidly growing, backed by heavyweight representation - Pick & Mix MGMT, alongside Swedish indie tastemaker label Icons Creating Evil Art and X-Ray Touring.
He has performed at some of Scotland’s most popular festivals such as T-In-The Park, Belladrum, Linlithgow Folk Festival, and the Edinburgh Fringe. He performed live in 2021 with the esteemed Gabe Coulter, Starsailor, and then with his close companion, Dylan John Thomas in 2022, whom he joined on his sold-out tour later that year.
This was followed by support shows with Far From Saints in Leeds and Glasgow in 2023. The same year Murdo set out on his first headline tour of the UK in April which was very well attended.
Behind the scenes, Mitchell has signed a deal for the world with Sony Music Norway/Drabant, has recorded with Chris Bond (Ben Howard), Ollie Green and has promised new music and live dates this year.
