'''Stuart Lee Murdoch''' (born 25 August 1968) is a [[Scottish people|Scottish]] musician, writer and filmmaker, and the lead singer and songwriter for the [[indie pop]] band [[Belle and Sebastian]].

== History ==
 +
The festival has its roots in [[May Day]], or Mayfete. Mayfete was a time when students would celebrate the "renunciation of the [[May Queen]] of the temporal world for a spiritual one," according to a 1951 history of the event. Although little is known about the early days, May Day was originally a celebration of the women of Northwestern. The crowning of the May Queen was the central event, and the pomp included a [[Maypole]] dance and cotillion. May Day expanded to May Week in 1946 to accommodate a women's sing, men's sing, and an honors ceremony.

==Early life==
+
Armadillo Day began in 1972.  In 1981 the A&O board first produced a free two day outdoor concert event to coincide with Armadillo Day, featuring rockabilly revivalist Robert Gordon on Friday, and blues legend Muddy Waters on Saturday.   The all-day Saturday concert event on the shores of Lake Michigan has continued the tradition of presenting  major industry artists. Food trucks and a "Dillo Village" surround the two stages. Northwestern University lists Dillo Day as one of its most notable traditions.<ref>[http://www.ugadm.northwestern.edu/student-life/northwestern-traditions/ "Northwestern Traditions"], ''Northwestern University Office of Undergraduate Admissions''</ref>

Murdoch's parents made him take piano lessons during his childhood, and even though he claims not to have enjoyed them at the time, he says he now "appreciates this decision vastly". Apart from early musical activities at secondary school (at the age of twelve he formed a band with fellow pupils, in which he played the piano), Murdoch first became publicly involved in music as a radio DJ for [[Subcity Radio]] at the [[University of Glasgow]].

Whilst at university at the end of the 1980s, he became ill with [[myalgic encephalomyelitis]], or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and was unable to work for seven years. Murdoch said that the isolation of these years is what led to his becoming a songwriter: "That was a big desert at the time, a kind of vacuum in my life. From that, these songs started coming out, these melodies where I could express what I was feeling." In early 1995, Murdoch had largely recovered from his illness and began to look for fellow musicians to form a band, which became Belle & Sebastian. Murdoch's struggle with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is the subject of the song 'Nobody's Empire' on the Belle & Sebastian album ''Girls in Peacetime Want to Dance''.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Parkhouse|first1=Will|title=Didn't See It Coming: An Interview With Belle And Sebastian|url=http://thequietus.com/articles/16415-belle-and-sebastian-interview|website=The Quietus}}</ref>

This was also when he began living above a church hall and working as its caretaker, a position he maintained until 2003. In 2004 he told ''[[The Guardian]]'', "I'm not actually a Christian with a capital C. I'm still asking questions. But I had this time when I found myself singing all these old hymns in my kitchen and I couldn't work out why I was doing it. Then one Sunday morning I got up, looked at my watch, and thought, 'I wonder if I could make it to a church service?' It was so welcoming. It just felt like you were coming home. Twelve years later, I've never left".<ref>{{cite news| url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2004/jul/17/popandrock | work=The Guardian | title=Raising their game | date=17 July 2004 | accessdate=11 April 2011}}</ref>

Murdoch's interest in faith has been perceptible in his lyrics over the term of the band. Belle and Sebastian's first album included lines about "reading the Gospel to yourself," and on the second Murdoch sang of "the pain of being a hopeless unbeliever." Religious references became more confident and direct on later albums, including "If You Find Yourself Caught in Love" (which continues "say a prayer to the man above" – this line becomes a refrain) on the album ''[[Dear Catastrophe Waitress]]''; and the two-part "Act of the Apostle" on ''[[The Life Pursuit]]''. Regarding "If You Find Yourself Caught in Love," Murdoch told Gross, "At the time I was writing it I thought, well, should I be so overt? Because I've often couched any religious overtones within characters in the past, but this is a bit more out there. And then I just thought, come on, you've been doing this for years, why not? Why not just be a bit more straightforward?"<ref>{{Citation |title=Stuart Murdoch on Fresh Air, NPR circa 'The Life Pursuit'  |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0vuciryUjMneeded|date=2006}}</ref>

Murdoch was diagnosed with colour blindness at an early age and does not drink. "I like a [[Scotch whisky]] but I'm allergic to alcohol, would you believe, which is a tragedy in itself," Murdoch says. "It's only in the last couple of years.

Dillo Day is an annual all-day music festival at Northwestern that takes place on the last or second last Saturday of May at the Lakefill. Begun in 1972, it is organized by Mayfest Productions, a Northwestern student group, and is the largest completely student-run festival of its kind.

History

The festival has its roots in May Day, or Mayfete. Mayfete was a time when students would celebrate the "renunciation of the May Queen of the temporal world for a spiritual one," according to a 1951 history of the event. Although little is known about the early days, May Day was originally a celebration of the women of Northwestern. The crowning of the May Queen was the central event, and the pomp included a Maypole dance and cotillion. May Day expanded to May Week in 1946 to accommodate a women's sing, men's sing, and an honors ceremony.

Armadillo Day began in 1972. In 1981 the A&O board first produced a free two day outdoor concert event to coincide with Armadillo Day, featuring rockabilly revivalist Robert Gordon on Friday, and blues legend Muddy Waters on Saturday. The all-day Saturday concert event on the shores of Lake Michigan has continued the tradition of presenting major industry artists. Food trucks and a "Dillo Village" surround the two stages. Northwestern University lists Dillo Day as one of its most notable traditions.[1]
