Peter Murphy is an English singer, born in Northampton in 1957, and the lead vocalist of the post-punk band Bauhaus. His work includes the Bauhaus single “Bela Lugosi’s Dead” and solo albums such as Deep, whose songs include “Cuts You Up,” and Holy Smoke. Bauhaus reunited for the Resurrection Tour in 1998, followed by a 2005 Coachella performance where Murphy sang “Bela Lugosi’s Dead” while suspended upside down. His 2013 Mr. Moonlight Tour drew entirely on the Bauhaus catalogue. The Ruby Celebration later paired him with Bauhaus bassist David J for performances of In the Flat Field in full.
