Julie Murphy

There are 2 performers with this name: 1) an American singer, who fronts Virginia contemporary folk group Eddie From Ohio; 2) a British singer, who fronts Welsh neo-traditional folk group Fernhill. 1) Raised by a musically-talented family in northern Virginia, Julie Murphy (now Julie Murphy Wells) has had singing as an avocation since childhood. Her rich, clear voice has been a hallmark of indie folk powerhouse Eddie From Ohio since she and three friends founded it in 1991; despite the demands of touring, she released two solo albums in the first half of the 1990s.

Bob Delyn A'R Ebillion

Bob Delyn a'r Ebillion are a Welsh folk-rock band fronted by poet, bard, singer and harpist Twm Morys. Their songs are sung in Welsh, with several in Breton (singer Nolwenn Korbell also features on two of their albums), strongly influenced by traditional songs and legends, but with an original, fresh take. This is also evident in the music, a unique mix of contemporary rhythms and instruments, with strong presence of Celtic harp and haunting sax.
They have released four albums, Sgwarnogod Bach Bob (Bob's Little Hares), Gwbade Bach Cochlyd (Little Red Faces), Gedon and Dore.
