Murphy’s Law was formed in 1982 in Astoria Queens , by lead vocalist Jimmy Drescher . He claimed he started the band for “Girls, free beer, and getting into clubs for free. Ya know, what every other girl and guy does it for. And for glory, it was just fun and something to do.” The group played their first show at a New Year’s party on January 1, 1983, with Reagan Youth , MDC , and Heartattack, originally formed as just a one off however the band received positive feedback from the crowd so they ended up playing more shows and writing more material. Their band name is a direct reference to the adage Murphy’s Law .
