Byron Bay singer-songwriter and one of Australia’s most loved musicians, Pete Murray has just released his new single, Take Me Down, alongside the announcement of his sixth studio album, Camacho.

With over one million album sales to his name, the quiet achiever of Australian music will showcase new tracks and old favourites on an epic 33-date national Camacho Tour that stops in at the Tanks on the 8th of September.

Beat-driven and anthemic, Take Me Down cleverly reveals a new direction for Pete, yet still manages to feel like a catch up with an old friend – his smooth, familiar voice both warm and inviting.

“Take Me Down is about a beautiful relationship with an unknown future,” Pete says.

“It’s about not knowing how much time is left and being in the moment; it’s emotive, moody, sexual and vulnerable and will probably increase the population of this country!”

Determined to shake things up and find a fresh sound for the album, Pete explored different writing and recording techniques, and collaborated with hip hop producer Trials (AB Original) to achieve the drum sounds he was looking for.

“The thing I wanted to do different with this album was to take my time and get it right. So many times in the past I have jumped into a studio for 4 – 6 weeks and recorded an album. Once the recording time is over, so is the album,” explains Pete.
Guaranteed to be lapped up by new and old fans alike, Pete Murray has delivered a cool, uplifting, emotive, and powerful album (available June 2), and it will be celebrated and brought to life on stages across the country.
