Murs and Slug (Known as “Felt” when recording together along with ANT) started during a tour in 2002. Slug and Murs were having a friendly arguement over who would have a better chance to sleep with actress Christina Ricci.
Somehow they decided to make a record as a tribute to her. Recorded in Murs’ hometown, Los Angeles, the record sounded more like Minneappolis hip-hop, the first Felt volume titled “Felt: A Tribute to Christina Ricci” took only a week to write and record.
Due to the success of the first Felt, in 2005 the group released “Felt 2: A Tribute to Lisa Bonet”. This time recorded in Slug’s hometown, Minneapolis, yet sounding more like L.A. hip-hop.
Recently it was confirmed by both Murs and Slug that a FELT3 album is in the works. It is unclear which B-list actress the album will be dedicated to. |
