About Me

According to Simon Walls, "Every song has a story and every note has something to say." This singer, songwriter and multi-instumentalist started his career in Montreal in 2004 with a goal of writing and recording some rock/acoustic/good feeling music. His first full length album, "Don't ask your eyes what the end looks like," was recorded in May 2007. Combining passion and talent, Simon produced and recorded all of the instuments and vocals on the album in collaboration with Studio Sixième Sens and Clodia Boyer.

Having previously performed in the Quebec and Ontario scene, an AIDS charity event and the "Taste for Life" week in St-Jean-sur Richelieu, Simon is anxious to share his music with the rest of Canada. Simon will be touring colleges, univeristies, clubs and venues throughout the year.

Simon's passionate and thought-provoking melodies combine all that music is: emotion, people, love and experience. There is more to music then the notes on the page: music is the soundtrack of life. Simon hopes that his album will show you the true meaning of music.

------------------------------------------------------------ ------

Selon Simon Walls, « Chaque chanson a une histoire et chaque note a quelque chose à dire ».

Le chanteur, compositeur et multi instrumentiste a commencé sa carrière à Montréal en 2004 en ayant comme but d’écrire et d’enregistrer de la musique Rock/Acoustique/Good Feeling. Son premier album, « Don’t ask your eyes what the end looks like », a été enregistré au printemps 2007. Combinant passion et talent, Simon a produit et enregistré tous les instruments et les voix de son album, en collaboration avec Studio Sixième Sens et Clodia Boyer.

Ayant déjà performé sur les scènes du Québec et de l’Ontario, dans un évènement de charité pour le SIDA à Ottawa et pour la « Semaine du Goût de Vivre » à St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Simon tient beaucoup à partager sa musique avec le reste du Canada et fera la tournée des Cégeps, collèges, universités, clubs et salle de spectacle durant toute l’année.

Les mélodies passionnantes et provocantes de Simon combinent tout ce que la musique est : émotion, monde, amour et expérience. La musique n’est pas qu'une partition sur une page, la musique c’est la trame sonore de la vie. Simon espère que son album vous montrera ce que représente la musique à ses yeux.
