Martin Simpson
Martin Simpson, Quay Theatre, Sudbury, 18th September
40 years after he recorded his first album, Golden Vanity, in 1976, Martin is known as a guitarist of formidable talent.
Equally at home playing English traditional folk, American folk and blues and his own compositions, he is consistently named as one of the very finest fingerstyle guitar players in the world.
We’ll let the reviews speak for themselves:
“Martin Simpson has transcended borders and oceans to quietly become a superb storyteller and musician of great depth and unquestionable taste.” Stephen Fearing
“Martin is in a class of his own.
He is such an expressive player; he is ingenious in his use of the guitar. You can listen to one of his songs and three or four minutes in, he has only used the top four strings and not even played a bass note yet, and when he does, it feels like an orchestra coming in. His clarity of playing is just amazing.” Jackson Browne
“One of the virtuoso instrumentalists of the English music scene”
