Murray Attaway – Guadalcanal Diary, the Athens, GA Scene and a Great Solo Career

Murray Attaway and high school friend Jeff Walls formed a band in the early 1980s. Initially calling themselves Emergency Broadcast System, they would become Guadalcanal Diary, a band who became a fixture in the Athens, Georgia music scene. Their live shows were incredibly popular and before long they signed with independent label DB Records. After a tour of the states and a lot of airplay on college radio, they were signed by Elektra. They recorded and released albums throughout the ’80s playing their final show in 1989. Murray continues to write and record as a solo artist. He’s composed music for several independent films and several of his songs have appeared in movies and television. The first of two interviews with Murray Attaway.
