Born Jean-Louis Bergheaud on January 28, 1954, in the Massif Central lot community of interests of La Bourboule, he worn-out the bulk of his childhood at his grandparents' grow in outback Murat-le-Quaire; non only would the village's key afterward double as his creative assumed name, only its rural asceticism would deep influence his songwriting as well. Murat began learning euphony at age vII, oftentimes sitting in on tenor sax and trumpet with his father's amateur band. A lone wolf by nature, as a teen he consumed the amatory literature of André Gide and D.H. Lawrence, eventually discovering American malarky and R&B. By 17 he was a hubby and forefather, at the same time perusing at Clermont-Ferrand -- the marriage proven passing, however, and Murat worn-out the next several long time as a nomad, working rummy jobs everyplace from Paris to Saint Tropez. In 1977 he returned to Murat-le-Quaire for good, forming a lot, Clara, that shortly served as the backing unit behind pop vocalist William Sheller. While Clara dissolved before long later, the exposure landed Murat a record plow with EMI, and he introduced his signature firebrand of romanticist despair with 1981's "Suicidez-Vous, le People Est Mort," which immediately earned censure from tuner station Europe 1. A six-song EP, Murat, followed in 1982, and iI age by and by he issued his number one uncut effort, Passion Priveé. Sales were nonexistent, and spell on go in support of CharlElie Couture, the isaac Merrit Singer well-educated that EMI had ended his shrink. Murat presently latched on with CBS, recording a number of demos that were unceremoniously shelved, and finally retreated back to the Massif Central to reclaim and design his side by side move. Despite minimal interest from equal labels, Virgin Records lengthened a shrink offer in early 1987, and before long after Murat resurfaced with the unmarried "Si Je Devais Manquer de Toi." The record proved an unexpected achiever, and set the leg for the 1989 LP Cheyenne Autumn, a profoundly atmospheric and melancholy song cycle that sold in surfeit of one C,000 copies. A 1990 follow-up EP, Murat en Plein Air, nonrecreational earnest court to nation life and farther cemented Murat's newfound commercial prowess, so much so that he future co-starred alongside Isabelle Huppert and Béatrice Dalle in film producer Jacques Doillon's La Vengeance d'une Femme. In the minds of many French critics, his side by side album, Le Manteau de Pluie, remains Murat's masterpiece, husking his music to its mere essentials in caricature of his idol and about orchestrate antecedent, Leonard Cohen. The follow-up, Venus, was recorded in exactly six years and strike retail in the autumn of 1993, past the singer's first-ever tour of duty, an eight-month trek highlighted by trey December dates at the Paris locus La Cigale that were by and by assembled for the concert LP Murat Live. Inspired by trip-hop and written in the heat of a failed relationship, 1996's Dolorès proved Murat's best-selling movement to engagement, and was followed by a brief tour of duty; he and then traveled to the U.S. to record 1999's Mustango, a free radical changeover from late efforts that spotlighted his scandalization against the force and racism more and more plaguing his native land. An lengthened tour yielded a second alive LP, Muragostang, and in 2001 Murat returned with a newfangled studio apartment project, Madame Deshoulières, a record based on a serial of poems by seventeenth one C lady Antoinette Deshoulières; conversely, six-spot months by and by he issued Le Moujik et Sa Femme, his most accessible and mainstream pop tone ending to date. At an age when nigh artists begin curtailing their creative rate, the 49-year-old Murat continued accelerating his output signal, in early 2003 cathartic the bleak, Neil Young-inspired Lilith. He side by side teamed with Elysian Fields frontwoman Jennifer Charles and bassist Fred Jimenez (a longtime collaborationist of French pop wunderkind Bertrand Burgalat) to create the ye-ye-influenced A Bird on a Poire, a work credited to all trey participants. Murat resurfaced in the springiness of 2005 with 1451, a limited edition multimedia arrange comprised of a 1,000-line verse form written by the singer as well as an consequent CD and DVD; a related project, 1829, set the lyrics of Napoleonic Empire-era ballad manufacturer Pierre-Jean de Béranger to original euphony. A newfangled LP, Moscou, presently strike retail as well, highlighted by duets with industrious pop stars Carla Bruni and Camille. The much-acclaimed Taormina followed in mid-2006.
