-Ohio Concert Promoter
Professional Profile
Over a span of 17 years, J.C. Simon has left his sound and style with persons of all ages, resulting a combined career audience of approx 1.8 million listeners.

Originally hailing from the heart of the midwest rust belt in Youngstown, Ohio, J.C. got his start in broadcasting under the wings of legendary PD Tom Pappas at WHOT in 1999. Since then he worked with Sirius Satellite Radio for close to 4 years and relocated to Ottawa, Ontario in late 2007 to pursue his passion for music with local venue bookings across North America and abroad.

Featured for 3.5 years on Sirius XM's 36 The Beat "Adrenalin" mixshow, JC contributed to the worldwide advancement of both Dance and Club formats by supporting new, fresh names on the scene and cross promoting locally with venue managers when possible.

Following a forced exit from SiriusXM in the post merger layoffs, J.C. built a new home studio suite, complete with voice over production facilities. He now hosts and produces a twice monthly podcast, aptly named "ARCADIA", which is another word for Utopia. A fitting following up and tribute to both the niteclub he owned, opened and built with serveral partners in Youngstown, Ohio and the Adrenalin series mix shows that he was a part of across North America.

J.C. is currently seeking syndication agreements with terrestrial broadcast stations for the distribution of his show, which is imaged by vetern broadcast legend, Pat Garrett. The lastest show samples can be downloaded at http://fixinthemix.livejournal.com
