Simon Kempston is one of Scotland’s best young songwriters and leading finger-style guitarists. His original, distinctive guitar playing is founded upon a complex, finger-picking style which reveals his classical training and is complemented by Simon’s rich, powerful and compelling clipped vocal style.
