Phil Simpson is an acoustic singer-songwriter originally from Blackpool. Now based in North Yorkshire he frequently plays around the area solo, and with his band 'The Acoustic Project'. Blending a mix of traditional folk tunes and original material, Phil's songs are 'beautifully melodic' and are written about experiences everyone can relate to.
Phil is also collaborator with Blackpool artist Steph Fraser. They are signed to Sonic Vista Recordings in Blackpool, and Jaded Rebel Entertainment in Canada. They are travelling to Canada in March to showcase at the prestigious Canadian Music Week industry event.
