About the Artist - Pierce Murphy
From penthouse stages in Hiroshima, Japan to subterranean clubs in Le Marais, Paris, Piece Murphy has brought his trademark mix of jazz, blues, and soul to many corners of the globe. Born and raised in the music of Denver, CO, Pierce honed his craft with the likes of Ron Miles and Dave Devine. In addition to performing, Pierce has written, recorded and released six albums in the last seven years. When he’s not playing jazz in a cozy lounge, you can find him playing high octane guitar solos with O’Connor Brothers Band, cus even jazz guys gotta rock sometimes.
Been working on a new illustration specific portfolio website. Figured I could put a little reel together while I was at it. Link in @piercemurphycreative bio. #illustration
The circle of fifths is a magical pattern that doesn’t make you any better at music. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But it’s still cool to talk about. #musictheory #circleoffifths #guitar #guitarplayer #harmonics #overtones #physicsofsound
Music theory is just a bunch of patterns people have noticed over the centuries, and the more you simplify, the easier it is to understand the really complex stuff.

Been working on a new little pet project. Yes, there are a lot of theory books out there on the market. But I feel like they’re either too academic or too rudimentary and sort of universally boring. So I figure I could combine my disparate music and design skills and fill the gap. What do the guitar players think? Is this of any interest? #guitar #guitarteacher #guitaristofinstagram #guitarlesson #musictheory #musiclessons #musicteacher #musictheorymemes #musicstudio #modes #phrygiandominant #musicschool
