Her music fuses contemporary composition and song-writing with elements of free improvisation, while always keeping story-telling at its core, hailed as “some of the most exciting large ensemble jazz emerging from the London scene today” (UK Jazz News).Since being awarded the prestigious Peter Whittingham Jazz Development Awardin 2021, Murphy has established and performed with her Jazz Orchestra across the UK, from Birmingham Symphony Hall, to Vortex Jazz Club to Cheltenham Jazz Festival. The Orchestra’s upcoming debut studio album was recorded with support from the Help Musicians’ Next Level Awardin 2024, featuring Murphy’s 4-piece Sister Suiteand her Eddie Harvey Award-winning arrangement of You Are There. In 2025, Olivia composed two large ensemble suites, Open World Suite, performed to a sold-out Pizza Express Jazz Club (Soho) in March, andSiren Cycle, commissioned by Tony Dudley-Evans for Cheltenham Jazz Festival in May. Siren Cycleis a sixty-minute, ten-movement suite, inspired by folklore and Greek myth, described as “an undoubted triumph” (The Jazz Mann). Murphy has since been funded by PRSF Women Make Music Awardto create a studio recording of the work.Murphy is a regularly commissioned composer; recently writing for Sonorite Saxophone Quartet, The University of Birmingham, and Merton Music Foundation, and she has been published by the ABRSM. 2026 collaborations include performances with Cambridge University Jazz Orchestra, Trinity Laban Jazz Ensemble and Birmingham Jazz Orchestra.

    Judith Owen - Suit Yourself

    Acclaimed vocalist and songwriter Judith Owen returns with her captivating new album, Suit Yourself, released today, April 24th, 2026 via Twanky Records. Recorded at Esplanade Studios in New Orleans, Suit Yourself showcases Owen’s continued evolution into jazz, blues, and big band, blending the vibrant energy of her previous releases with her signature storytelling and rich musical arrangements. Our feature track today, “To Your Door” stands out as a heartfelt and playful original, inspired by the spirit of Django Reinhardt, while offering a refreshing twist on the classic “musician on the road” narrative. Written and produced by Owen, the track serves as a personal love letter to her husband, actor and comedian Harry Shearer. Flipping the traditional perspective, Owen delivers a confident and empowering message from a woman’s point of view: “The more you give me the freedom, the more I want to come home,” she explains, highlighting themes of trust, independence, and enduring love. Adding an international flair, the release also features a French-language version, “TE CHERCHER (To Your Door French Touch Version),” with text adapted by Yasmine Mohammedi-Kyd. Today we chat all things Judith and take a deep dive into the new album.  Support the show
