Ladies and gentlemen, meet the artist formerly known as Chet Faker. Taking to Facebook earlier today, the Melbourne singer and producer announced he will release his next album under his real name, Nick Murphy.
“its [sic] been half a decade since I started releasing music as Chet Faker and all of you have been the driving force behind the music since,” he wrote.
“theres [sic] an evolution happening and I wanted to let you know where its going. the next record will be under my own name, Nick Murphy.”
“Chet Faker will always be a part of the music. This is next.” The follow-up to Murphy’s massive debut album, Built On Glass, has been in the works for some time, with no official release date set.
