Murs Talks Signing To Strange Music, “Have A Nice Life” & More [Video]

Since Murs released his last album, 2012’s Yumiko: Curse of the Merch Girl, a lot has changed for him, namely a move from a major label to an indie. Thankfully, though, his new album arrives two weeks after his label boss debuted at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100– no small feat for any indie artist. Murs’ Have A Nice Life drops this week on Tech N9ne’s Strange Music label, and recently, we got a chance to chop it up with him. In it, he offers a description of the album’s title: “Basically the duality of the term Have A Nice Life is, it could be a nice way of just wishing someone the best, or it could be a nice way of saying ‘Fuck outta my face’ without saying it. It’s something I’ve used with the police often, and people who fuck up my order at Chick Fil A.” Watch the full thing above, and let us know what you think.
