Nick Murphy, formerly known by his stage name Chet Faker, is an Australian singer and songwriter who has carved a distinctive niche in the music world with his soulful voice and blend of electronica, R&B, and indie influences. He gained international acclaim with his 2012 cover of Blackstreet's "No Diggity," which led to a buzz in the music blogs and a spot on several commercials. The release of his debut EP, "Thinking in Textures," solidified his reputation as a nuanced and innovative artist, setting the stage for his critically-acclaimed full-length album, "Built on Glass," in 2014.

In 2016, Murphy announced he would drop the Chet Faker moniker and start releasing music under his birth name, Nick Murphy, an act that signified a new phase in his career and a move towards a more mature, evolved sound. In this recent era, Nick Murphy has explored further soundscapes, evident in works such as "Run Fast Sleep Naked" and the more experimental "Music for Silence," released in collaboration with the meditation app Calm. With a string of eclectic and introspective releases like "Dangerous" EP and the "Cassette" series, Nick Murphy continues to show his musical versatility and emotional depth, securing his role as a potent force in contemporary music.
