Born 29th January 1988 in Nottingham, Simon began playing on a Yamaha keyboard aged 11 inspired by a recording of the great Reginald Dixon being played in his Grandad’s living room. He used up money in his savings account to upgrade his keyboard when he was 13 and had lessons to hone his technique. It was clear that his playing style was suited to an organ and he purchased a Yamaha Electone HS8 just a few years later.
Simon played to his first audience aged just 15 whilst still at school and soon began providing holiday cover in pubs and clubs, playing to accompany singers. He continues to do this to this day!

Simon developed his technique further to be able to play for dancing, having played for local functions, fundraisers and events.
Over the years, Simon has built his collection of instruments to include a Yamaha SX970 keyboard, Technics GA1, Technics GA3 and a Technics EA5. All of which he transports to various events. He uses a Roland Fantom XR sound expander to reproduce the wonderful sounds of the Tower Ballroom in Blackpool.
