Biography:
Or, a delectable sampling of copypasta from our Electronic Press Kit:
Murphee K is a band composed of George Perez, Chris Hencher, and Ronnie Pirtle.  Or is it "comprised of"?  I forget.

ANYWAY.

Murphee K has three members - George, Chris, and Ronnie - who try to recreate in every live show the urgency, transience and sweetness of making art and punk music with each other and for each other.  Man, that sounded really corny.   Maybe not paying someone to write any of our material was a bad decision?!?  :0  Oh well, we've come this far, and DIY is how we'll go.   Life's too short for small gaffes and foibles, you know?  And you know what, guys, let's grab some your friends, and we'll gather ours -- let's live it up tonight!
Press Quotes:
"...the Murphee K end goal is the same...  That goal:  'To always keep it fun.'   The lights and the bubbles on stage...  are all designed to cultivate that fun."
- The Student Beat, July 2008, Volume 1, Issue 2

Past Biographies:
Guys!  Check out this really old and grarly "mission statement" that I found while cleaning out the garage!  (circa 2002-ish?, oh and I deleted two lines recently):
A ritual.

Self sufficiency.

A blitzkrieg approach.

What this is is a hopeful, beloved realization.

What this is is a call to uncompromising honesty.

We are still searching.  We are becoming.

Get ready.
