Touring up to 75,000 miles per year, Simone performs an average of 270 shows annually (2007-2016). Independently financed and self-managed, Simone has achieved more than most indie-bands would hope for. National media attention, endorsements from international organizations and regular airplay are just of the few accomplishments this young artist has experienced. '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 LA Guns, Bullet Boys, Dishwalla, JR Richards, The Sammus Theory, At Cliffs End, 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.
