Simon Webb, known to his friends as Si, is a new age composer: A 21st century musician producing ambient post-classical music that reaches from the serene to the epic. His music is organic, often romantic, always atmospheric, and highly visual: A soundscape for a movie in your head.
He is well known on the UK music scene for his television, film and theatre music, and over the past ten years has regularly written for ITV, BBC, Channel 4, and The National Theatre.
In 2006 he released a solo album, THE BRAIN, on his wwWebmusic label, and, encouraged by super-positive feedback on MySpace, CD Baby, and iTunes, Si has spent the last eighteen months producing the follow-up album, A LEAP INTO THE LIGHT.
A LEAP INTO THE LIGHT combines Si's talents with those of long time musical associates, AFROCELT Martin Russell, and legendary WHITESNAKE guitarist, Bernie Marsden. They went in search of (and found they say) the 'Holy Grail' of guitar sounds. You have to listen to the album to hear these extraordinary sounds and soundscapes.
Simon Webb's music appeals to music fans of many persuasions: "I'm composing for the ambient generation. I'm trying to connect the classical and popular music worlds."
