Martin Simpson
Described by the Guardian as "One of the virtuoso instrumentalists of the English music scene", Martin Simpson's interpretations of traditional songs are masterpieces of storytelling.
Nominated an astounding 32 times in the 18 years of the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards - more than any other performer - the Scunthorpe folk singer, guitarist and songwriter has won numerous awards.
His remarkable solo shows are intense, eclectic, spellbinding and deeply moving.
Always prolific, and never one to rest long without a guitar in his hands and a song in his head, Martin Simpson continues to travel the length and breadth of the UK and beyond giving rapt audiences passion, sorrow, love, beauty, tragedy and majesty through his remarkable intimate solo performances.
A virtuoso player without question, but above all Martin Simpson conveys his diverse treasure trove of material from the heart, performing with rare subtlety, intensity and honesty. A true master of his art.
