The Thirst the Hunger and the Horn is available exclusively at live Murder Mouse shows and online. 

The Murder Mouse Blues Band opened the Bridgetown Blues Festival at the Festival club, and headlined at the Freemason's Hotel on Saturday night only after a matinee show which was literally packed to the rafters at the Bridgetown Hotel

Thanks to the organisers for doing such a great job and thanks to the crowds for making ours such an easy one, see you next year. 

The Thirst the Hunger and the Horn was featured across all RTR programming starting November 28th. RTR FM is the premier independent radio station in Australia and some say the world, operating out of the cultural centre of the Mt Lawley precint in Perth. "The Thirst" album showcases the highly eclectic and bizarre influences currently holding Murder Mouse's attention and pre-release reviews have described the album as the best Australian blues and roots album in two decades, a riveting follow up to their highly original and award winning first album Fill the Hole. 

Murder Mouse will be headlining the  Blues and Roots nights of the 10 Day Music Festival which is Singapore's biggest celebration of international music. Previous years headliners include K.D Lang, Buddy Guy and The Duke Ellington Orchestra.

The Murder Mouse Blues Band is one of the premier Australian blues folk rock outfits in Oz today. Founded in 2008 by Adam Morris, author and singer songwriting juggernaut, Murder Mouse has quickly become a national force in Australian music. Joining Adam in the band is multi instrumentalist, composer, songwriter and record producer Jon Edwards who plays blistering harp, electric, slide, lap steel, mandolin and banjo. And pounding the swaggering bone shaking blues sound of the band is Western Australia's master percussionist Warren Hall.
