A regular at The Hotel Café in Los Angeles, Purdy traveled to the UK with Tom McRae in 2006 as part of McRae's Hotel Cafe Tour.
Purdy’s appearance at the Wireless Festival in Leeds led to a special request from The Who member Pete Townshend and his girlfriend Rachel Fuller to play with them at their acoustic In the Attic Series shows.
Purdy also began to affiliate with The Giving Tree Band starting in 2012, performing live shows in conjunction on a tour across America.

You Can Tell Georgia was recorded outside London immediately following a European tour with Tom McRae. Paris in the Morning was recorded during a short visit to Paris a few months later. In July 2009, Purdy began touring with Steve Earle.
Television
His song “Wash Away (Reprise)', from the Julie Blue album, was chosen by J.J. Abrams for the third episode of ABC’s hit TV show Lost in its first season.
Shortly after, the song 'Suitcase' was featured in the seventh episode of Grey’s Anatomy and “I Love the Rain” (also off Julie Blue) was featured in the eighth episode of ABC’s TV show which led to “The City” (from Only Four Seasons) being included on the Grey’s Anatomy Season One soundtrack which sold over 150,000 units.[citation needed] Additionally, Purdy landed three more songs in Grey’s episodes, “Suitcase” (from Only Four Seasons), “Can’t Get It Right Today” (from You Can Tell Georgia) and most recently “San Jose” (from Take My Blanket And Go).
His song 'Rainy Day Lament' (And 'Good Days' from Season 7, Episode 1), from Stompingrounds, was featured on House M.D.
The song 'Mary May & Bobby' was playing at the Purity Ball during Tessa and Ryan's bathroom scene in episode 22 of ABC's (TV series) Suburgatory's second season.
Movies
Purdy's song 'Mary' (off the album Julie Blue) was featured in the film The Secret Life of Bees.
