Róisín Murphy Mania

 

I'm all about Ms. Murphy these days. (With good reason, too.) It's been close to a year since the release of her second solo album, "Overpowered," yet the Irish pop glamazon's CD continues to pick up steam. Overseas, that is...

Now it seems the good ole US of A might finally get in on some of that action. In October, Róisín will play the CMJ Music Marathon in NYC, to coincide with the international release of her next single, "Movie Star." She'll also re-shoot a new video for the single and, ever the busy bee, she's recorded a bangin' cover of Bryan Ferry's "Slave to Love," to be used in the new Gucci men's fragrance ad (featuring Milk hottie James Franco). With all this action, surely she'll be touring North America? Fingers crossed.
