Über das Event

Simon Kempston/special guest Richie Ros · Sonntag, 29.06.2025 · KISS

Simon Kempston is ‘one of Scotland’s very best songwriters’ (The Sunday Herald), a composer and ‘a master of fingerstyle guitar’ (The Scotsman) based in Edinburgh, Scotland.

There are very few artists who manage to create a sound on an acoustic guitar which is distinctive, instantly recognisable. Simon’s complex finger-picking style, which draws from the disparate genres of classical, celtic and blues (amongst others) confirms he is certainly one such artist, his subtle style providing the perfect accompaniment for his rich, powerful and compelling tenor vocals.

His outstanding songs showcase thought-provoking, inspiring poetic lyrics which often sidestep the usual themes of love and attraction, in favour of offering crucial, important political and social commentary. Fascinations with architecture, travel and English literature have all informed his impressive lyrical style, words which can stand alone as poetry in their own right apart from the music.

Richie Ros has been a full-time professional musician since 2010 after qualifying as a physiotherapist. Which he never worked one day as.

He released his debut Album “Odyssey” in 2019, produced by Grammy award-winning producer David Odlum and founding member of the Irish band “The Frames” (Glen Hansard) at Black Box Studio France.

Richie has toured extensively throughout Germany as well as Poland, Czech Republic, UK, Denmark, Sweden, Belgium, Austria and Switzerland. His musical influences are James Taylor, Don McLean, Van Morrison as well as traditional Irish bands like The Dubliners and The Pogues.
