Topic Records Announce the 20th Anniversary of Martin Simpson’s - The Bramble Briar

This year marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Martin Simpson’s ‘The Bramble Briar.’  A native of Scunthorpe in Lincolnshire, Martin Simpson had left to live out his American dream 12 years earlier, living in such diverse places as New Orleans, upstate New York and Santa Cruz, California.

Already recognised as one of the great acoustic guitarists of his generation when he left, he immersed himself in American music and honed his skills playing throughout the USA. This album heralded his return to the motherland with a bang. Universally lauded, it won the BBC Radio 2 Folk Award for The Best Album of The Year in 2002. Martin was also awarded the prize for Best Musician that year and again in 2004.

Available for just £7.99 from Propermusic.com
