When you think of Bill Murray, what poops into your head? 'Ghost Busters'? Or maybe 'Groundhog Day'. 

A classical singer wasn't one of those things, was it?

This is exactly what Bill has decided to do, and he's going all out, by releasing an album as well as touring.

He will be singing the music of George Gershwin and Stephen Foster, as well as some music from 'The West Side Story' dropped in there.

When speaking to the New York Times about the matter, he explained that he was only touring North America as the whole album was exploring themes of "American history and identity."

He also said that he found it difficult working with such skilled musicians:

“When they start playing, the demand is so great that if you’re attending to who you are right now, it brings out something that you couldn’t have visualised or planned for.”

What a man.
