Sid Simons

Sid Simons is a New York City-based songwriter and performer whose music is as dynamic and worldly as his background. Born in Portland, OR, raised in Sydney, Australia, and schooled in the underground rock scenes of China and NYC, Simons crafts a sound that seamlessly blends the grit of the early 2000s indie rock revival with the soulful, melodic warmth of 1970s Americana.

Simons first captured widespread attention with his viral hit "Wendy," paving the way for his acclaimed album, Beneath the Brightest Smiles.Produced by Gordon Raphael (The Strokes, Regina Spektor), the record established Simons as a "fresh yet familiar" voice in the indie scene. His unique artistry has since caught the attention of major tastemakers, earning features in Paper Magazine, NME, and other leading publications watching his rise. His most recent release, the 2025 EP The Last American Valentine, further showcases his evolution, marrying orchestral arrangements with his signature lyrical wit.

On stage, Simons is a magnetic force. Known for delivering high-octane, polished performances that bridge the gap between intimate storytelling and raucous celebration. Having already sold out iconic venues like the Bowery Ballroom and toured extensively across North America and Europe, Sid Simons is a star on the rise, bringing an infectious, crowd-commanding energy to every stage he plays.
