In 2007 Simon co-founded Reid & Stanners, with Louise Stanners. Based in Edinburgh, the team specialises in writing and producing fun, radio-friendly pop songs. They were named as 'Finalists' in the BBC/BASCA Songwriters' Academy 2008, and were then invited to perform at a Songwriters' Showcase event at The Bedford, in London. They went on to sign a publishing deal with London-based Respect Music, before winning 1st place in the Pop/Contemporary Ballad Category of The Pacific Songwriting Competition (Australia). The winning song is called "Like You Said", and can be heard here.
In April 2009 Barbara Orbison chose the Reid & Stanners version of the Roy Orbison song "You're The One" to be included on a worldwide iTunes release entitled "Roy Orbison - Under The Covers". Simon and Louise met Mrs. Orbison, as well as Alex Orbison and Roy Orbison Jnr. at the album's launch held at London's Gibson Guitar Studio.

"Simon, what a pleasure it was to work with you, your input really took my latest album to another level entirely.
You have the rare gift of being a perfectionist and yet easy-going at the same time - something I've only seen in
the best and most mature musicians in this business. It's good to be a small part of your story because, I believe
your work is going to take you far, and many of us are going to be saying "I remember when...". All the best in all
you do, your pal, Bruce"
