Martin Simpson at The Maze

Date: Wed 16th Apr
Time: 20:00

Cosmic American presents Martin Simpson
Martin has just won two of the biggest Awards of the night at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. Martin's latest CD, "Prodigal Son" won Best Album of the Year and his song, "Never Any Good" about his late father, won him "Best Original Song". Martin's playing deploys a control of pace and dynamics that touches the heart, like the best music, irrespective of whether the listener has a bit of Lincolnshire, Mississippi or Ganges beneath their manicured or careworn nails. In his playing he focuses upon economy and how to make each note pay. Listen to him playing now and you will hear how he measures not only the impact and length of each note, but, tellingly how he delivers the space that frames each note.
A great night for the lovers of a great song played brilliantly.
