Anna Murphy was born 10 August 1989 in Lucerne, Switzerland. Her father, Andrew Murphy, is a Dublin-born Irish person and her mother, Christiane Boesiger, is a native Swiss.[2] Because both of her parents work in Switzerland as professional opera singers,[3] she came in contact with music in her early childhood years.[3]
Music careeredit
In 2006, at the age of 16, she became the hurdy-gurdy player of the Swiss folk metal band Eluveitie. It provided a certain Celtic feel to the band.
In early 2010, Murphy formed, together with fellow Eluveitie member Meri Tadic, the ambient project godnr.universe!.[4] By the end of the year, she also joined the folk group Fräkmündt (named after the ancient name of Mount Pilatus),[5] which was one of the national contestants of the Eurovision Song Contest in 2011.[6] In the end, their song D'Draachejongfer could not beat In Love for a While (a song by Anna Rossinelli). Since the spring of 2011, Murphy worked as an audio engineer at the Obernauer Soundfarm Studios in Lucerne. In that same year, she also became a permanent member of the band Nucleus Torn.[7]
