InMe

McPherson founded InMe (originally known as Drowned) in 1996 as a three piece with him on lead vocals & guitar, Joe Morgan on bass & backing vocals and Simon Taylor on drums when they were just 14 years old. They were signed to MFN in 2001 and released their debut album Overgrown Eden in 2003. The band have consistently been active ever since.[2] Joe Morgan departed from the band in 2006 and was replaced by McPherson's brother Greg. In 2009, the band expanded to a four piece with the addition of Ben Konstantinovic on lead guitar, but he left the following year and was replaced by Gazz Marlow. In 2019, the band expanded to a five piece with the addition of rhythm guitarist John O'Keeffe, who had previously been a member of the band's touring crew. With the addition of O'Keeffe, McPherson stepped away from guitar duties and transitioned to solely being a vocalist. However, he still remains as the band's primary songwriter.

Solo

McPherson started working on solo material as early as 2004 during downtime from InMe's touring cycle (though it seems he has been writing music from a younger age). Since then, he has released a long string of solo EPs, albums and compilations of various rarities. He has also toured extensively both as a solo artist and with InMe and Centiment, playing close to 200 shows annually.
