Martin has been nominated an astounding 32 times in the 18 years of the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards – more than any other performer – and has won numerous awards. “Martin Simpson has transcended borders and oceans to quietly become a superb storyteller and musician of great depth and unquestionable taste.” Stephen Fearing Liz Hanks has played with numerous  artists including Smokey Robinson, Liam Gallagher , Richard Hawley and Pulp.
