Twice-winner of Muscian of the Year at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, Martin Simpson’s sound is highly distinctive; led by guitars, banjola and banjo, it moves from solo slide to flat out grooves via nursery rhymes and tragic dark ballads. Simpson’s own songs are beautifully written and at times most unusual in form, telling true stories and dealing with themes of love, loss, home and much more.
