Marty Willson-Piper And Blueburst

From the venue:

Marty Willson-Piper and Blueburst live at Eddie's Attic!

Marty Willson-Piper is an English guitarist, singer, and songwriter best known as a longtime member of the Australian band The Church (1980–2013). Over a 45-year career, he’s built a rich body of work through solo records, collaborations with All About Eve and The Saints, and his own project Noctorum. In 2025, he launched Archaeological Dig, Volume. 1, a reimagined collection of songs spanning his career, featuring acoustic and orchestral reinterpretations of deep cuts and fan favorites like “Tristesse” and “Spark.” The album is the first in a planned trilogy and showcases Willson-Piper's enduring lyrical and sonic depth.

Blueburst is Marty’s collaboration with Atlanta native Craig Douglas Miller, a guitarist and vocalist resurrecting a music career after a 20-year hiatus. Once poised for a breakthrough in the ’90s with his band The Reach, Miller returned to music after a transformative collaboration with Willson-Piper. Together, they crafted Blueburst’s acclaimed 2023 debut album Significance—a fierce, guitar-driven record rooted in ’80s alternative and post-punk influences but pulsing with present-day urgency. Described as “A lush, guitar-based sound deeply rooted in the legacy of ’80s alternative and post-punk,” Blueburst has been praised for its raw authenticity and cathartic lyricism.

On June 10th, Marty and Craig share the stage at Eddie’s Attic, performing solo and together. The evening will feature songs from Marty’s Archaeological Dig Vol. 1, Blueburst’s Significance, and a few unexpected covers that shaped their sound. This is a rare and intimate night of reflection, reinvention, and reinvigoration.
