British songwriter and independent artist Mara Simpson has captivated audiences around the world with her soulful melodies, rich lyricism, unassuming charm and wicked laugh. Recently quoted by New Zealand Musician Magazine as ‘Soulful, sincere, warm, rich and intimate. The songwriting is stunning.’ Mara now prepares for the release of her debut album, ‘Our Good Sides’, on home shores.London born to a Kenyan family, Mara has spent periods of time in Wellington (New Zealand) and Berlin. Her songs reflect her eclectic background and draw the listener close into these worlds. ‘Our Good Sides’ was recorded and produced by Tim Bidwell (producer of Kate Walsh and Fink) and features guest vocals from Olly Knights of Turin Brakes, Ben Ottewell of Gomez, and cousin, Courtney Simpson. Created in Clockwork Owl Studios - also Tim’s living room - the album was woven into being with old compressors, vintage microp hones, and many cups of Yorkshire tea. Every song is real, warm, and sung from the heart.
Mara played over 100 shows in 2015 on stages across the UK, Europe and as far away as New Zealand. Her growing profile has lead to recent plays on BBC Radio 6 as a BBC introducing artist and features on playlists by Tom Robinson (Fresh on the net, BBC music) and Denzyl Feigelson (founder of AWAL, Apple music). Mara now bases herself out of Brighton.
