‘… the masterful songwriting of Eve Simpson’ – RGM Magazine, 2022.
Eve Simpson, songwriter, storyteller, and collaborative community artist from South Shields, situates her Geordie lilts in the Celtic surroundings of Edinburgh. Written between the two places, her upcoming EP seeks inspiration from Joni Mitchell’s Woodstock-like playfulness and the honest vulnerability of songwriters Laura Marling and Carole King. Funded by Youth Music’s NextGen Fund, Simpson’s ‘All Her Strange’ EP is a coming-of-age exploration of love, growth, misogyny, grief, and heartbreak, Simpson’s most honest offering yet.
Returning to releasing in 2022, Eve has received editorial support on Soundcloud’s Hot UK Pop, as a recent Global Distribution signing of Horus Music. Eve has received regular airplay and playlisting from BBC Introducing, adding to prior support across Introducing festival stages and BBC 6 Music. In addition to previous tours with Martha Reeves & The Vandellas, Eve has debuted her new live material at Edinburgh Hogmanay Festival, Sofar Sounds (Glasgow, Edinburgh), Sneaky Pete’s Central Belter’s Fringe Showcase, and Virgin Media Hotels. Previous collaborations have seen Eve gig with Beth Nielsen Chapman, Kathryn Tickell, and The Lake Poets, as well as scoring the North East segment of a FOCAL International award-winning film.
Attending the Ivor Novello Awards in 2022, Eve is currently an In The Room representative for the Ivors Academy, working on the impact of working outside of a major music city on the mental health of music industry workers. Eve also co-runs an independent record label, Intarsia Records, focussing on underrepresented artists in the UK. Eve’s EP is due for release in April 2023, with the lead single, His Euphoria, out on the 17th February, and supported by her April UK Tour.
