"...not your average folkie. Expressive and unique... OK Cafe is a clever hybrid of styles... Whether in a ballad, a funk-inflected expanse or some ethereal territory, her muse is constantly complex and rewarding." -Dirty Linen Music Magazine,
Bio / Background
"When the bond between Heaven and Earth is broken, even a prayer is not enough. Only a story can mend it." -The Baal Shem Tov
One of today's truly original folk artists, Maggie Simpson weaves her songs, stories, dynamic guitar playing and mesmerizing voice into a performance you won't want to miss. Her music and stories are both powerful and celebratory. Her song writing reveals a complex, sophisticated rhythmic and harmonic sense but springs from a raw innocence that keeps it tuneful and accessible. Simpson has also built a name for herself in the folk world as a performance teacher at Planet Bluegrass' Song School in Colorado. In her own performances she masterfully taps that innate wealth of feeling, expression, nuance and magic that she teaches her students how to access. Maggie offers a rare performance.
"Quotes..."
"Simpson is not your average folkie. Slapping her 12-string guitar for additional percussion, she changes the tempos often.
