about
Byron Bay based Australian Simon Asquith is a solo acoustic artist. Described as “edgy, soulful, and a mantra for the modern world”, Simon’s original slant on the roots/indie acoustic scene is gathering momentum and building towards the release of his debut solo album “Goonengerry to Degraves Street”. This Independent artist is proving across Australia and Europe that his live shows are dynamic and sincere, with the right combination of infectious groove and powerful lyrics. 2008 was a big year that saw a great response to the “Pleased to Meet You Tour“ with fellow acoustic soloists Jess Harlen and Travis Marke. Simon toured Europe in summer 2007, 2008 & 2009 - performing both solo shows and at Street Festivals in England, Ireland, Switzerland, Hungary, Germany and Spain. He spent some time holed up in a cottage in a pretty little Irish village at the end of 2009 to write and record new material... Simon is back in Australia now and taking on the 2009/10 summer festival circuit. “Onstage, Simon lets his soulful nylon strings & sensual, life affirming lyrics coax the audience into the uncertain future with all the strength & hope that love & music can provide” ( T. Marke 2008 ) http://www.myspace.com/simonasquithmusic http://www.facebook.com/pages/Simon-Asquith-Music/273782566726 User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
