London-based songwriter and actor, Martha Skye Murphy, relishes suspending her audience between euphoria and unease. She likens it to a duel. “It’s not easy listening – you are being activated and being guided through an experience that doesn’t allow you to come up for air until it’s over,” she says. Murphy co-founded a theatre company and starred in the one-woman show Two Body Problem, and is now working on an opera project. It’s fitting, then, that her avant-pop contains so much graceful drama.
