Simon N. Barker

If you pushed me hard, I'd say I'm an indie rock guy, but that's just part of it. At 15 I started making up songs, at 18 I formed a band, sung and guitared, we did alright locally, I continued writing and accumulated 100s of songs, 10% of which actually aren't all that bad. Biggest influences are The Beatles, the first band I really loved as a kid. Bob Dylan. The Smiths. The Velvet Underground. Pixies. Radiohead. Since 2007 when I started on youtube, I've been studying music production and now I'm ready to get out there again and do something with the big back catalogue of songs I have on paper, cassette, mini-disc, phones, laptops and hard drives. Now, years later, I've fully returned to my original goal of writing...
