A hugely respected figure on the London folk & roots scene, and leading light of the legendary Lantern Society folk club in Farringdon´s Betsey Trotwood, SIMON STANLEY WARD is a country singer with a strong streak of the surreal running through his veins. Sounding like the original cowboy crooner – a perfect cross between Neil Young and Charlie Rich, with a high lonesome voice to match- this consummate entertainer´s songs don´t always go where you expect...
“Proper country music delivered with style. The album opener “Monster Song“ is quite simply one of the best country songs that this reviewer has heard in many a year. “ - Americana UK
“Home grown talent! It sounded wonderful!” - Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2
