Liz Simcock

Liz Simcock is an accomplished performer and recognised as one of the country’s finest female singer songwriters. Her songs – often autobiographical and highly personal – are immediately accessible to audiences and injected with poetry, emotion and splashes of humour. Liz counts Richard Thompson, Clive Gregson, Boo Hewerdine and Joni Mitchell amongst her songwriting influences. In 2015 she toured with Clive Gregson revisiting the Gregson & Collister songbook but Liz’s main focus has always been on her own songwriting and live performances. Her sixth album is in the making, working title "Into The Light". “Remember when you found those Vashti Bunyan and Karen Dalton records? Remember how you thought "I wish I could have been there"? Well, Simcock is right here, right now. People will rediscover her albums in thirty years' time, lavishly compile sleeve notes and wish that they were there too. She's that good. … Armed with an acoustic guitar, a brilliant voice and a sharp, songwriterly eye, Simcock is the precious stone glinting on a pebble beach” (downendfolkandroots.com).
