Britain's What's On Event Guide
Martin Simpson + The Breath
Universally acclaimed as one of the finest ever acoustic and slide guitar players, and a fine banjo-picker to boot, Martin Simpson shows bear witness to an artist at the very top of his game. Whether interpreting material from tradition or singing his own potent self-penned songs, Simpson is a remarkable storyteller: captivating and profoundly moving.
The Breath are Manchester based guitar-whizz , Stuart McCallum and singer/ flautist Rioghnach Connolly. Connolly is a folk singer with a larger-than- life personality and a powerful stop-you-in-your-tracks voice to match. Together they perform honest, personal, heartfelt songs as likely to touch on childhood summers as cultural dislocation and grief. An award-winning duo, not to be missed.
