Turns Out Chet Faker’s Name Change Was Good Timing For Heaps Of Other Musicians

Earlier today one of Australia’s biggest artists Chet Faker caused a stir by announcing that he would no longer be making music under the moniker that he’s become famous for, and would instead revert to calling himself by his actual name: Nick Murphy.

The news has resonated pretty well with most fans, with many tweeting their support for Murphy’s decision.

However, the decision couldn’t have come at a better time for a bunch of other musicians, who have all co-incidentally decided to change their own respective names to “Chet Faker” as of today.

Sydney singer-songwriter and producer Andy Bull, Melbourne producer Braille Face and Brisbane party-rock outfit Dune Rats have all rushed to claim the now-vacated “Chet Faker” monicker as their own.

As they say, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure.

Well played sirs, well played.
