Maggie Simpson resides in the Rocky Mountain West, where she is renowned for her powerful and dynamic performance style, her stunning voice, her rhythmic guitar work, and her stories. She grew up in a family of trained actors, musicians, directors and public speakers. She left home at sixteen years old to begin six and a half years of professional training in the performing arts (four and a half of those in Boston University's Professional Theater Training Program). She followed her training with fifteen years of performance experience in acting, performance art, self-scripting and acoustic music. These elements converge with grace and power in her performance, creating a show that is simple and complex, dramatic and subtle, and singularly Maggie.

Simpson's music covers a broad range from ethereal, lyrical ballads to hard edged, funk inflected grooves. Her song writing reveals a complex, sophisticated rhythmic and harmonic sense but springs from a raw innocence that keeps if tuneful and accessible. Maggie's stories are simple but profound; disarmingly unselfconscious. She underscores her performances with a spacious, "meaty" and percussive guitar style which, though compelling, remains unobtrusive and like everything else she does, is an equal and integral part of the whole.

'...not your average folkie. A clever hybrid of styles that the listener will find intriguing...Her muse is constantly complex and rewarding."

Maggie walked me through a song I thought I knew. Now the song has so much more room in it; room for wonder and sun to come through. I want to bring every song to her."
--David Wilcox
