The first steps of Murnau`s Playhouse were taken during the autumn of 2007 in Tampere, Finland, when guitarist Marko and bass player Ville hooked up and decided to start playing together. After a couple of jamming sessions they began feeling they might have the makings of a goth rock band. One night at a local goth club, vocalist Arttu heard them speaking of their band plans and offered to join them. He had been looking for a band to join for some time, and since they all knew each other already, a trio was soon formed.

The late autumn months were spent just jamming together, playing assorted covers and planning the purchase of a drum machine to provide the beat. As luck would have it, though, they got into contact with a live drummer, Kontra, a short while later and thus took a step away from the old school goth rock approach.

With this four man lineup, the band started moving forward rapidly. Marko had some riffs in his back pocket and the guys began developing them into complete songs. The rehearsals in the summer of 2008 saw a further shift from the original old school goth rock band concept towards a sound more reminiscent of post-punk and new wave. Near the end of the summer, Sari joined the band on the keyboards, and all five felt the pieces were definitely falling into place.

During autumn 2008, Murnau`s Playhouse decided on the band’s name and recorded their first, four track demo. With a song off the demo, the band entered an annual song contest arranged on the web forum of the local Club Schatten. After the polls closed, Murnau’s Playhouse song White Noise White Light was declared the winner of the contest, something which surprised even the band. The contest ended up being the perfect springboard, and gigs soon followed.

The following year, Murnau’s Playhouse played several gigs at various clubs around Finland with a very positive response from the crowd each night. The highlight of the year was playing at the sold out Lumous Gothic Festival kick off club. An extensive rehearsal schedule between shows resulted in a host of new songs, and eventually the band went into studio to record their debut album, Sanity Show, which was released in late 2009. They are currently writing new material for a new release, and planning a tour of Finland for the early part of the coming year.
