For Trish Murphy, growing up the daughter of bohemian parents had its advantages. When she started singing by age 5 and playing guitar at 11, there was no shortage of Beatles and Dylan records in the house to soak up inspiration from. She began performing in Houston clubs with her brother, and later moved to Austin to launch a solo career. Her acclaimed 1997 debut Crooked Mile and 1999’s Rubies on the Lawn secured Murphy’s status as one of Texas’ most popular female songwriters, with a sound built on equal parts roots rock and catchy Beatlesque pop. “Crying as Fast as I Can,” a powerful anthem about the struggle to push past the heartache of a failed relationship is from her outstanding album, 2003’s Girls Get in Free.
