This haunting film is the story of American singer songwriter John Murry, who was on the cusp of greatness after the release of his highly acclaimed album The Graceless Age (2013), when his world fell apart. Addicted to heroin and creatively exhausted, he washed up on the shores of Ireland, a broken man. Now, he retraces his steps back to Mississippi into the dark heart of American life and faces his demons – a neglected childhood, traumatic assault, and resulting years of opioid addiction.
John Murry will be playing a number of solo acoustic shows in the UK and Ireland to mark the release of this album. Come and see.
