Overview
- Murphy and Montgomery have announced Nebular, a joint album to be released on the independent label AD 93 and described in press materials as a formal consolidation of their collaboration.
- The record is presented as five connected pieces that prioritize slow, atmospheric development rather than conventional song forms.
- The lead single “Cloudburst” runs about seven minutes and is being promoted with a visual piece by artist Simon English.
- Murphy says the pair work with a shared vernacular that embraces layers, multitracking and imperfection, a process she called a “continuously unravelling piece of string.”
- Nebular builds on prior work between the two, including a 2024 single called “Need,” live performances during Montgomery’s London residency, Murphy’s 2024 debut Um on AD 93, and Montgomery’s recent archival release that has helped renew attention to his catalog.
