ABOUT

According to Simon Walls, "Every song has a story and every note has something to say."

This singer, songwriter and multi-instumentalist started his career in Montreal in 2004 with a goal of writing and recording some rock/acoustic/good feeling music. His first full length album, "Don't ask your eyes what the end looks like," was recorded in May 2007. Combining passion and talent, Simon produced and recorded all of the instuments and vocals on the album in collaboration with Studio Sixième Sens and Clodia Boyer.

Having previously performed in the Quebec and Ontario scene, an AIDS charity event and the "Taste for Life" week in St-Jean-sur Richelieu, Simon is anxious to share his music with the rest of Canada. Simon will be touring colleges, universities, clubs and venues throughout the year.

Simon's passionate and thought-provoking melodies combine all what music is: emotion, people, love and experience. There is more to music then the notes on the page: music is the soundtrack of life. Simon hopes that his album will show you the true meaning of music.
