Thoughts on "An Evening in Snow":
"An engaging 6 song EP by a young PEI songwriter and performer with a whole bunch of upside potential. This EP allows the listener to glimpse into the not so distant future and hear a young songwriter and performer in his formative stages and imagine what great music is yet to come !" -Sandbar Music
"Murray’s songs are whimsical and thought provoking." - The Buzz
