Often referred to as a cross between No Doubt and Led Zeppelin, Simone continues to break convention with their own style. Influenced by the underground Detroit scene as well as the post-pop alternative sounds of Amsterdam, Simone remains in a class all their own.
'Strong riffs, hooks and melodies make Simone a highly-listenable band' (Miramar Management), but it is the energy of the live performances that Simone is best known. Sharing the stage with bands such as The Sammus Theory, B-Liminal, A Love Not Lost, Driving The Fall, Anyone's Guess, Selby, One Fall Away, At Cliffs End, Pellets On Target, Stranded and many others, Simone exceeds expectations.
Known for their live performances -- "[Simone's] got the look, got the voice, got the songs" (Steve Gilmore, Rebel Riffs), Simone tours throughout the US and Europe. Their music has charted on GarageBand, StereoFame, OurStage, NoiseHead and Imeem, and their independent release "Temporary Heaven" was awarded the E.A.R. (Excellence In Audio Recording) award in 2007.
If there is one band that you follow this summer, it should be Simone.

Simone actively participates in the recycling of compact discs and encourages artists and listeners to join her with helping to make a difference.
For a list of reputable recycling centers that specialize in compact disc recycling, please consider:
Did you know?
♫ To manufacture a pound of plastic (30 CDs per pound), it requires 300 cubic feet of natural gas, 2 cups of crude oil and 24 gallons of water
♫ It is estimated that AOL alone has distributed more than 2 billion CDs. That is the natural gas equivalent of heating 200,000 homes for 1 year
♫ It is estimated that it will take over 1 million years for a CD to completely decompose in a landfill
♫ One well-known record company spends over $50 Million Dollars EACH YEAR to destroy unsold CD's.
Ya'll need to play some shows in the Tampa area! I got a few crappy CDs that need to be recycled. Plus I miss your shows! Horns high. (Maybe I can do an interview with one of you)
After LONG consideration, Brian (age 16 ) from Tallahassee FL won the funniest comment contest. He will recieve a free Tshirt, CD and be on the guestlist to a show of his choice. In conclusion, he is a funny bitch. Read his comment our Blog.
All of you ROCK as a matter of fact.
