Bill Murray’s musical career
Bill Murray is nominated for Best Actor in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy for playing Vincent in ‘St. Vincent.’
What started as a random karaoke moment has grown into something much bigger for Bill Murray and his Blood Brothers. Their story really took shape at the Murray Brothers’ Caddyshack Golf Tournament, according to an article published by NBC.
Here, Murray’s brother John sparked an unexpected musical collaboration with the blues‑rock duo Mike Zito and Albert Castiglia, who were already performing as the Blood Brothers.
As they performed during the Murray Brothers’ Caddyshack Golf Tournament, the comedian hopped on stage, turning a casual moment into something “electric”.
And from that spontaneous jam, a new band was born.
The band has evolved, with seasoned musicians like Jimmy Vivino joining the lineup. Murray stepped into the role of frontman, delivering lead vocals for music from artists like The Kinks, Bob Dylan and Prince while adding his own flair on percussion.
Over the years, Murray has performed at events such as Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Festival, John Prine & The Steeldrivers at the Grand Ole Opry, and Love Rocks NYC at The Beacon Theatre.
