Murdo Mitchell
Raw electrifying indiepopfolk
FFans of Ben Howard, Paolo Nutini, and Glen Hansard, take note: meet Murdo Mitchell, whose musical journey is as captivating as his heartfelt melodies. This 25-year-old singer/songwriter from Glasgow started out as a street musician, but now he's taking the stage by storm. After a sold-out show in 2025, he's coming back to Simplon in May 2026!
Mitchell's journey is a testament to years of hard work, determination, and raw talent (and a little bit of bluff). His musical journey began at the age of 11 with his father's punk albums and his first guitar and amplifier, which he bought for £75 at the famous Barras Market. He became famous in the UK through the talent show X-Factor, after which he took the British stage by storm.
After opening for artists such as Glen Hansard and Katie Tunstall, Mitchell is now ready for his own moment in the spotlight as one of the most sensational artists on the acoustic circuit.
