The Murmurs were an American alternative pop music duo composed of singer-songwriters Leisha Hailey and Heather Grody.
In 2001, Hailey and Grody reunited as a band named Gush which featured more of an indie rock sound. The band also included members Jon Skibic, Brad Caselden and Dave Doyle. They released one self-titled album that was sold exclusively at their live shows.
From 2007 to 2016, Hailey performed in the band Uh Huh Her with Camila Grey. The band recorded three albums and three EPs and had their music featured in the films The Kids Are All Right, Hotel for Dogs, and The Carmilla Movie.
In 2005, following the breakup of Gush, Heather Reid (formerly Grody) and Jon Skibic formed the band Redcar with Michael Sullivan and Ryan MacMillan. Their debut album was released in March 2007 and was produced by Grammy award winning producer Greg Collins (U2 and Gwen Stefani). Reid also started a record company, Phyllis Records. Reid wrote the music, book and lyrics to Dear Bernard a musical that played in Los Angeles at The Court and Zephyr theaters in 2013. The musical attracted the attention of Chrysalis Records who hired her as a songwriter for other artists. This resulted in a song she co-wrote with Hailey, "Don't Bother", being recorded by Shakira on the singer's 2005 album Oral Fixation, Vol. 2. Reid recorded a solo album, Cross Words, which was released in 2014.
In 2018, Reid was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia. After several months of chemotherapy, radiation, and a bone marrow transplant, Heather considered herself healed. In 2020, Reid recorded the single “Right Here Right Now”, based on her cancer diagnosis and treatment.
In 2020, Reid stated that she and Hailey "are constantly talking about a reunion for the Murmurs."
