Murfy's fLaw (often misspelt as Murphy's fLaw or Murphy's Law) is Kenyan alternative rock band formed in Nairobi, Kenya, in 2007.

It is a 6-piece band that is unique in Kenya in its chosen genre of performed music, the fact that they are all full-time non-music professionals and that it is composed mainly of rubenesque girls. There is only one man in the band.[1]

Murfy's fLaw is also unique in its Multi-cultural mix of peoples from different tribes and countries.[2] The band's varied musical style has fused traditional rock with elements of funk, reggae and an indescribable tinge that can only be described as Kenyan.

On November 21, 2008, Murfy's fLaW released their début album Makosa.[3][4][5]

On November 11, 2011, they released their sophomore album, "Hello Light".[6]

Punk in Kenya, no limits, moving forward



The rock scene in Nairobi consists of between 10 and 20 active bands. They center around a monthly Battle of the Bands organized by the bands themselves. Prior to a few years ago, rock music was considered “noise” and associated with “evil music” according to Amos Kiptoon of the For Rock Society of Kenya. It's been only recently that the rock scene in Kenya has cohered and grown into a vibrant thriving community.

Of the active bands, probably the most successful is Murfy's fLaw. With a sound drawing heavily on early 90's alt-rock, this nearly-all-female band is one of the first bands in the Kenyan scene to record a full length album. Their debut record Makosa was recorded at a local studio that previously had only recorded afro-fusion, benga, and hip-hop. Availability of quality gear and studio access has made recording difficult for many of the bands, but the Rock Society is hoping to produce a compilation of Kenyan bands within the year, in addition to a documentary of their scene.
