    The Making of Sugar Island

    The 4 of Us have always been storytellers, and our latest album Crescent Nights is the latest chapter in a musical journey that began in the heart of Northern Ireland. Today we delve into Sugar Island, our autobiographical album exploring our early lives in the border town of Newry during turbulent times. Discover how fatherhood, Nashville, and family memories shaped this musical journey of childhood, checkpoints, and first loves. I also talk about how I first found my voice as a singer and how some of the family weren’t impressed. Joining me is my good friend, Greg Canty, host of the WinHappy podcast.

    The Making of Walk With Me

    As The 4 Of Us release our latest album, Crescent Nights, we reflect on the records that have shaped our journey. In this episode, I’m joined by my co-host, Greg Canty of the WinHappy podcast, to discuss my solo project, Walk With Me.   Our story begins with an invitation to Music City, USA. Celebrated songwriter Sharon Vaughn opens the doors to Nashville’s Music Row, and I return home with a bunch of stripped-back songs in search of a home. It soon turns into a family affair.  One track resonates so deeply with my dad that he decides to record his own version in the studio!! My brother Paul helps out along with Declan and Enda, and guitarists Henry McCullough and Kieran Goss lend their expertise. Join us as we recount the transatlantic journey behind my album, Walk With Me.     Brendan Brendan Murphy, THE 4 OF US This podcast has been produced by Fuzion.

  4. The Making of Heaven and Earth

    The Making of Heaven and Earth

    The 4 Of Us are set to release our newest album, 'Crescent Nights', reflecting on the previous works that led us here. With our co-host Greg Canty, also the WinHappy podcast host, we dive into the creation process of our fourth album, Heaven & Earth. We used song titles as writing prompts, drum beats as muses, and a box of tricks called the SU 700 to create atmospheric soundscapes. The result? Songs like Sunlight and Gospel Choir. So, are you ready to hop into our time machine and travel back to 2003? Enjoy... Brendan Murphy, THE 4 OF US This podcast has been produced by Fuzion.

    The Making of Classified Personal

    As The 4 of Us gear up to unveil our latest album, Crescent Nights, we’re taking a trip down memory lane to revisit the records that shaped our journey to this moment. In this episode, I’m joined by my good friend and co-host, Greg Canty, host of the WinHappy podcast, to explore one of the most pivotal chapters in our story—Classified Personal, our first independently released album. This was the album where everything changed. We unplugged, slowed things down, parted ways with brother Paul, and left behind our Northern roots to start fresh in Dublin. The black suit was out, red was in, and with it came a bold new sound that redefined who we were as a band—The 4 of Us, Mark 2. We’ll unpack the stories behind the songs, the shift in musical direction, and how names like Pulp and The Spice Girls found their way into an album that delves deep into the messy, beautiful world of affairs of the heart. Join us for a candid look at the creation of Classified Personal, and how it set the stage for everything that followed. Let's get into it..   Brendan Murphy, THE 4 OF US This podcast has been produced by Fuzion.

  6. The Making of Amplifier (the one you may have never heard of!)

    The Making of Amplifier (the one you may have never heard of!)

    Welcome back to another episode of the Please Do Something Podcast, where we dive deep into the stories behind the music. Today, we’re talking about “the one that got away” – our elusive, unreleased, third album, Amplifier. With no time constraints, no budgetary constraints, and our very own home studio, we thought we had everything we needed to create a great record for The 4 Of Us. But as you’ll hear, things didn’t exactly go according to plan!! Join me as I recount the highs and lows, and how we ended up driving ourselves – and my parents’ dog, Bruce, a little bit mad over the course of a few years. It’s a tale of passion, persistence, and perhaps a bit of folly. Joining me for this journey is my good friend and co-host, Greg Canty (host of the Win Happy podcast). Enjoy the show!   Brendan Murphy, THE 4 OF US This podcast has been produced by Fuzion Communications.

    The Making of Man Alive

    As The 4 of Us prepare to release our latest album, 'Crescent Nights', I thought it would be fun to explore the albums that have led us to this moment. Joining me for this journey is my good friend and co-host, Greg Canty (host of the WinHappy podcast). In today’s episode, we dive into the making of our second album, 'Man Alive'. Did we suffer from the notorious "sophomore slump?” With Man Alive making it into Q Magazine's Top 50 albums of the year and our single 'She Hits Me; brushing the UK charts, we certainly faced some memorable highs and hurdles.

    The Making of Songs for the Tempted

    Making an album is always an exciting challenge and adventure.   As The 4 of Us gear up to release our latest album, Crescent Nights, I thought it would be fun to chat about the albums that got us here and the lessons we've learned along the way.   Joining me for this series is my good friend and co-host, Greg Canty.   First up, let's talk about Songs For The Tempted, our debut album.   Imagine this: no drummer, so we used preset rhythms on our dad's keyboard to keep the beat. Then there was a video shot in our school gym that gave us our first big break, and believe it or not, we signed our first record deal without ever playing a single gig!!.   It's been quite a journey.   Enjoy the show!!   Brendan   Brendan Murphy, THE 4 OF US This podcast has been produced by Fuzion.   Greg Canty is the host of the Win Happy podcast.
