Whitney toured the United States and Canada during the late 1960’s and early 1970’s with a 5-piece show band. She was the lead female singer for the group and also played lead Guitar, Banjo, Flute, Bass, Piano and Electric Keyboards.

Upon returning home to California Whitney formed  “The Sounds of Nirih,” which performed in clubs throughout the Bay Area, but mostly in Solano County where they played for several years in the Social Quarters of the Moose Lodge in Vacaville and a wonderful small club in Suisun City called “H-Jays.”

Whitney retired from show business about 10 years ago, but since she and her husband moved to Fall River Mills she has become enthused about performing again, but on a much smaller scale.

Whitney works mostly as a solo entertainer, but is often joined by her husband, Singer-Guitarist Steve Murdock. Although Niteowl and Maryann still live in the Bay Area with their family, Steve and Whitney are hoping that they will be moving up to this area within
the next year or two.

While “The Sounds of Nirih” play 6-string and 12-string Guitars, Bass, Trombone, Keyboards, Electric Drums, Banjo and Flute, Whitney relies mostly on her electric keyboard (with all of its various accompaniments and sound effects) as her primary source of accompaniment when she works alone. However, she also brings an assortment of tamborines, maracas and other rhythm instruments as well as extra microphones, encouraging “Audience Participation.”
