Cornelia Murr was born in London and resides in California as a dual citizen, having spent much of her childhood moving through the United States, from Colorado to Massachusetts, California to New York City and upstate New York. Working with producer Jim James of My Morning Jacket on her 2018 debut album Lake Tear of the Clouds, Murr conjured a hazy blend of folk and cosmic soul music, bringing to mind the fantasias of Broadcast, Stereolab’s most pastoral moments, and the spooky romance of Beach House. She released the single “Hang Yr Hat” in 2021, inspired in part by the art of mime and the legendary Marcel Marceau, followed by the EP Corridor in November 2022, which No Depression describes “is as much an exploration of sparkling pop as it is a deeply felt mediation on the ache of being alive.” She has toured with such contemporaries as Rodrigo Amarante, Lucius, Michael Nau, and Dana Gavanski.
