About the episode

Queensland musician Pete Murray sits down with Sarah Grynberg to unravel the chapters of his life that have shaped his remarkable journey. Growing up in the small town of Chinchilla, Pete's childhood was a blend of passion for sport and dreams of Olympic glory. However, fate had a different score for him. Join us as Pete shares the unexpected twists and turns that led him from the sports arena to the world of music. Tragedy struck Pete's life at the tender age of 18 when he lost his father. In the midst of grief, Pete discovered solace in music, inspired by his father to chase a career away from the typical 9 to 5. Hear firsthand how the chords and lyrics became his companions in healing and self-discovery. From the dusty streets of Chinchilla to the iconic airwaves of Triple M, Pete Murray's journey is nothing short of a musical odyssey. Tune in as he recounts the pivotal moments that catapulted him into the limelight, from the thrill of his first radio plays to the electrifying atmosphere of the best gigs he's encountered. Join us on Stories of Us as we dive deep into the life and experiences of Pete Murray, a storyteller through melodies and a testament to the resilience that can emerge from the most unexpected places.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
