In this special three-part series of The Art Box, host MJ takes us home to Oregon for an intimate look at the stories, friendships, and creative spark that drive Petty Fever, the award-winning Tom Petty tribute band beloved across the Northwest and beyond. Through personal connections with the band and their families, MJ explores the music that shaped their lives, the heart behind their performances, and the shared passion that keeps classic rock alive for a new generation. Life Behind the Music goes deeper than the stage—into the people, places, and moments that make the music matter.

In this second installment of Life Behind The Music, host MJ sits down with Frank Murray, the heart and driving force behind Petty Fever. Frank has spent decades lighting up stages across the country and abroad, sharing his extraordinary voice and musicianship with fans around the world. His uncanny resemblance to Tom Petty—both in tone and presence—has earned him a reputation as one of the finest tribute performers working today.

Frank opens up about the formation of Petty Fever back in 2009, his lifelong connection to Petty’s music, and the passion that fuels each performance. Through MJ’s conversation, listeners get an intimate portrait of a frontman whose mission goes beyond imitation—it’s about honoring a legacy, building community through music, and keeping the timeless spirit of Tom Petty alive one song, one audience, and one heartfelt night at a time.
