For the last four decades, Colleen Cosmo Murphy has been chasing a long thread of good music. From her first DJ gig at 14, when she'd rather play records than speak, through to working at record shops and following through on ideas like founding her own label Bitches Brew, running Lucky Cloud Loft Parties and the community-focused Classic Album Sundays. Volume 5 of her Balearic Breakfast compilation is out next week on Heavenly Recordings.
