Cornelia Murr

Cornelia’s Murr’s newest album began with a question: What do I want? The answer is everything, and it’s never felt more urgent.

On her first LP in six years, Run To The Center, out February 28, 2025 on 22Twenty, the London-born singer-songwriter delivers her most confident, expansive album yet. Across 10 hypnotic pop songs is a fully realized portrait of a woman and an artist in her thirties, standing triumphantly in uncertainties, asking the crucial questions one needs to sustain a life: How can you fit everything you want into a life? How can you do this if you want so much?

Run To The Center, which Murr will tour internationally next year, is her first release since her self-produced, six-track EP Corridor in 2022 and her first LP since her 2018 debut Lake Tear of the Clouds, produced by Jim James of My Morning Jacket. For years, Murr tried to make another LP, but extraneous forces kept getting in the way, whether economic or global.

But in the spring of 2023, Murr started working with prolific producer Luke Temple (Adrienne Lenker, Hand Habits), adding to her impressive list of collaborators, which includes Rodrigo Amarante, Alice Boman, Reverend Baron, and Oracle Sisters among many others. Temple was an old friend whom she had met in New York more than a decade prior. Finally, forces coalesced for them to work together. The result is a sweeping album of Murr’s most spectral and tender pop yet, born of a need to excavate her desires and experience of time, both in new songs born spontaneously out of an easy collaboration with Temple, as well as older songs that, for years, had been knocking around in her brain.

Run To the Center is the most updated expression of who Murr is now, both sonically and emotionally, particularly as questions around artmaking have become more urgent for her over the better part of the last decade.

“As a young person you’re free to wander. There's a lot of power in that,” Murr says. “But there's an incredible sense of urgency that has snuck up on me. All of a sudden it feels like I must define my life in some major ways. Am I going to be a mother or not? If so, who am I going to do that with? If so, where am I going to do that? How am I going to afford that? Meanwhile, this feels like the most important time to devote to my work. Life these days is seemingly asking for my commitment to what can feel like contradictory things.”

But from urgency comes purpose: Run To The Center is an explosion that sounds like an exhale: the delicate, ethereal beauty of Murr’s music is fortified by a new sonic strength, expressed in more muscular production than Murr’s last releases, including louder drums and bouncier synths.The album swirls with a sparse and hazy futurism, exploring life’s biggest questions with the assurance of someone comfortable basking in its uncertainties.

While writing the record, Murr did literally run to the center, that is, of the 48 contiguous United States, where she hunkered down in the 948-person town of Red Cloud, Nebraska while restoring an abandoned house. Music flowed out of her during this monastic period of stripping wallpaper in a derelict construction zone in the middle of nowhere. In the last place she expected, she was able to gain a vantage point of her own life and ultimately locate her own center, a grounding force that was inside of her the whole time. “Working on this old house as if it’s my body/If I take care of it it’ll take care if of me/Stripping leaves off the centuries/Maps of other worlds obscured destinies,” she sings on the title track with a delicate nerve, like tapping a champagne glass with the tine of a fork before making a toast. She may not have answers to all the big questions, but for Murr, the beauty is in being able to ask.

Murr and Temple began working together at Temple’s apartment in Pasadena, then recorded with bassist Shane McKillop and drummer Kosta Galanopoulos at a studio in Long Beach. When Murr moved to Nebraska in the summer of 2023, Temple came out to join her. She had set up a bare bones recording rig, and there they finished all the arrangements together. While Murr’s past albums, with her signature soft voice and celestial production, have been described as “dreamy,” the multilayered, revved up production of Run To The Center sounds more like waking up.

When Murr recorded Lake Tear of the Clouds, she had barely performed as a solo artist but rather had backed up other artists for years. That album marked a pivotal change in her life: the shift where she decided to focus on her own music, a shift of intention and identity. If Murr’s first album was about unveiling her own voice in music, her latest record is about exploring that commitment.

The album’s radiant, seasoned production is on particular display in lead single “How Do You Get By?”, which explores the brass tacks of life, asking real questions around the economics and the personal currencies that drive you, whether it be money, fame, or spirituality. “In the dream I asked you it seemed kinda rude/But in the light of day I’m going to/How do you get by,” Murr sings.

“I've found that people who seem to have wealth in one way are seeking it in another,” Murr says. “The song starts with curiosity in others, but it's also asking yourself: What is it that sustains you? What do we need from each other?

For all her sweeping questions, Murr brings humor to her songs. “Bless Yr Lil Heart” is at once a tongue-and-cheek and earnest cry in response to our unstoppable mercurial whims and urges. “Tell me how am I ever gonna make a real life/Wanting everything at the same time,” Murr sings in a closing stanza that’s as soothing as it is cathartic. After all this time, Murr has arrived, standing fully in her power.
