Overnight, Chet Faker performed his latest single “Low” on NBC’s The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The performance comes on the heels of Nick Murphy’s recent revival of his acclaimed Chet Faker project, and marks his first live performance under the persona in over four years.
Arriving as a full circle moment for the five-time ARIA award-winning and chart-topping singer, producer and songwriter, Chet Faker first made his American television debut on the show in 2015. Watch the poignant rendition now HERE.

“Low” was officially released in October 2020 via Murphy’s own Detail Records, in partnership with BMG Australia & New Zealand. Adding to a back catalogue that emits a fluid grit-fuelled artistry and emotionally intuitive vision that counts over a billion streams, “Low” is the first Chet Faker release since 2015 and a timely track that analyses melancholy through a lens of optimism. To date, the single has already racked up over 5 millions streams on Spotify alone, landed over a hundred placements on prominent playlists across Apple Music, Spotify and Amazon Music, drawn widespread attention from around the globe including the likes of Rolling Stone, Hypebeast, NME, Uproxx, Consequence of Sound and more, and has garnered attention in the lead up to triple j’s annual Hottest 100 countdown.
Murphy’s Chet Faker project first appeared in 2012 with the Thinking in Textures EP, winning him Breakthrough Artist of the Year and Best Independent Single/EP at the AIR Awards. The next year, his Hype Machine topping cover of Blackstreet’s “No Diggity” gained momentous adoration from a 2013 Super Bowl commercial. Before long, the 2014 debut Chet Faker studio album Built on Glass debuted at number one on the Australian ARIA Charts, and appeared three times in the top ten of triple j’s Hottest 100, taking out the top spot for “Talk Is Cheap”. The self-produced, solo-written album would go on to receive platinum certification, and earn Murphy five ARIA-Awards recognising B est Male Artist, Best Independent Release, Best Cover Artist, Engineer of the Year and Producer of the Year.
In 2016, Nick Murphy revealed his follow-up output would sit under his own name, under which he has since released the 2017 EP Missing Link, 2019’s studio album of strikingly mutated electronic and pop grooves, Run Fast Sleep Naked and the sublime instrumental record Music For Silence in March 2020, an ambient collection first premiered on the meditation and sleep-devoted app, Calm. An accomplished pianist, vocalist and guitar-player, Nick Murphy has performed at sold-out festivals and theatre stages worldwide, under his own name and as Chet Faker, exuding a raw and glittering energy.
“Low” kicks off a vivid new chapter for Chet Faker. Yet again proving his immeasurable live talent, check out the new performance and get set for more music close on the horizon.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
