Simon Rudston-Brown is an innovative and exciting new voice on the Sydney original music scene. His artistic blend of honest and direct lyrics with memorable melodies and contemporary guitar is being met with warm reviews from diverse audiences. Although Simon draws inspiration from many genres the most striking influences are from artists such as the Beatles, Radiohead, Neil Finn, James Taylor and Jeff Buckley. Like these artists, Simon is striving to create honest and exciting music with a global appeal. His performances feature the inventive harmonies of Melinda Kirwin and he will be recording a new EP in September 2004 with a full band line-up. "I was very impressed. I heard a gorgeous languorous voice and the kind of well-crafted pop songs that sound like classics on first listen - beautiful stuff." Amanda Easton, Host of 'AcousticA' 2SER 107.3fm "Simon's music contains all the elements I love about music, passion, strong melodic invention, warm chords, a sense of space and above all it's created from the heart. Therefore it has the capacity to speak to the heart and inspire one to feel." Edoardo Santoni, Singer/Songwriter |
