Simon


Simon’s passion didn’t come out of nowhere: ever since he was a baby, his parents introduced him to the wonderful world of Queen, Led Zeppelin… and even ABBA!


What was your first musical instrument?

The bass!

What’s your favorite song?

Too hard to choose. Maybe Chop Suey by System of a Down.

What’s the greatest album of all time?

Alter Bridge - Blackbird

The best concert you’ve ever been to?

The Alter Bridge show in 2004, when they weren’t that famous yet. The performance was stunning. Myles (Kennedy, ed.) is one of the most gifted singers out there, and the band is no joke. Not to mention Mark Tremonti’s guitar skills… extraordinary.

Your favorite artists/bands.

Hans Zimmer, Alter Bridge, Metallica, Guns N’ Roses, Chevelle, Muse, Trivium… the list is endless.
