About Me

I have been reviewed in the magazine Guitarlab check it out: "Scotland's Simon Pollitt has an incredible tenor voice that is part early Billy Joel and part James Blunt. It is perfectly showcased in his song "Effortlessly Fading", which is gently produced around the voice like American 1970's radio music. Truly Pollitt has an award winning voice on par with any American Idol or Eurovision winner. His songwriting does not disappoint, and his lyrics are like clever poetry in "This Is Where It Ends." In both "This is Where It Ends" and "My Year", his voice is almost Axl Rose from Guns and Roses, due to its strong pureness, yet there is no screaming. Mixed with acoustic guitar, drums, and bass, it's a virtual formula for great music. Pollitt is clearly one of the diamonds in the rough of indie music. He has everything: strong songwriting, great professional production, and an unparalleled voice."(Queenie, Oct 06) ***********************My musical achievements are as follows: Toured the UK, including King Tuts, The London Garage, Liverpool Barfly, Manchester Roadhouse, The Exchange Edinburgh/ Enjoyed airplay and features on Radio1, Beat 106, XFM, Storm Radio, Wire FM/ Appeared in Kerrang, NME, The Scotsman, Edinburgh Evening News, The List/ Supported The Stranglers, Rooster, Speedway, Grim Northern Social, 4 Star Mary/ Played the unsigned showcase for MTV Europe Music Awards ********************************
