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 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.

"She's got the look, she's got the voice, she's got the songs... What she hasn't got is a record contract so what is wrong with this picture??"
          - Steve Gilmore, Rebel Riffs

"(Simone) "possesses a high quality voice and true talent at writing intelligently conceived catchy songs""
          - Rick Grant, Jacksonville Times

"This award is presented to area artists not necessarily for one particular recording, but rather for an over all body of excellent work. And this year's winner is one of the best around."
          - Christopher Long, Brevard Live

"It (Hello From The Sky) kicked in, grabbed my attention and never let go!
          - Ron DiFabbio, Garage Band

"Simone's stunning vocal range combined with her songwriting prowess made me take notice. She impressed me as a strong, determined woman who has found her reason for being."
          - Rick Grant, Jacksonville Times

"If I was a label, I would sign you!"
          - NuDepths, Des Moines IA, Internet

"Sign me up for the fan club, the song is great, and your voice is out of this world!"
          - User, TheSixtyOne

"If a top name producer like Don Was got a hold of this girl she'd be huge!"
          - Christopher Long, Brevard Live

Melbourne-based modern-rock band Simone will release their energetic and radio-friendly new collection of music, Built To Last, June 25, 2009.

Simone (lead vocals) grew up in Detroit, lived in Canada and now lives in Melbourne, FL, the home of Alamo Records, which is where she recorded 'Built To Last' (co-produced by Bobby Day).

With fighting spirit, unique vocals and a high-energy performance, Simone has been called "a strong, determined woman who has found her reason for being" (Rick Grant, Jacksonville Times).

Known for their live performances -- "[Simone's] got the look, she's got the voice, she's 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 coveted E.A.R. (Excellence In Audio Recording) award in 2007.
