About Me

CHECK OUT THE VIDEO FOR RIGHT WHERE YOU WANT ME
------------------ BIOGRAPHY : SIMON VALLEE ------------
Simon Vallee has just released his debut full length album. This is an Enhanced CD featuring the videos for "Right Where You Want Me" and "Almost Made Us". The Album looks to follow the success of his expressively charged sophomore album So Unclear. The past EP reached heights rarely seen by most independent artists. The single “So Unclear” charted #2 in the UK for over 30 weeks. The BBC has touted Vallee (pronounced ‘Valley' ) as one of Canada 's new gems. American press has praised Simon and MTV added his UK Tour dates to its featured tours column at MTV.com. So Unclear has seen its way to the top 10 of a number of online radio stations, a number #26 on CBC's New Music Canada, and has been featured on Toronto 's Edge 102.1FM Indie Hour hosted by Dave Bookman. Vallee and band completed an extensive live schedual last year including a 16 city month long tour of the UK. A trip which garnered even more praise from press and fans (visit press page).Hailing from Toronto Canada Simon originates from Kitchener Ontario. He has graced the stages of famed venues such as Toronto 's Horseshoe Tavern and the Hard Rock Cafe which have seen performances from Billy Talent to the Rolling Stones. Arlene's Grocery in New York city where REM gave a stirring performance one week before Simon's last show there. And, the Dry Bar in Manchester England where Oasis landed a bill just before they're heroic antics began on a major scale. Vallee is backed by a 4 piece band. The music can get in excess of loud or soft and intimate. Truly a dynamic that is uncharacteristic of today's new artists. His live performances have been quoted as “simply stunning” by the BBC.
