Martin Simpson is our latest ‘Off the Shelf’ guest, in which we ask artists to present objects from a shelf or shelves from their home and talk about them. Martin’s new album, Skydancers, is out now on Topic Records.
We meet with the ever-generous Martin Simpson to discuss Skydancers, his bumper new double album, out now on Topic Records, plus some of the tools of the trade.
Martin Simpson’s Skydancers is a beautifully packaged album. The music exudes class and quality, but what impresses most is the restraint. No notes are wasted and all instrumental flourishes land, enhancing each song. It is an excellent record from a master of his craft.
