CONNECT AND FOLLOW
Simon’s journey began when he left his German home at 15, determined to become a musician. He attended a music-specialized boarding school in Denmark, where he learned to play multiple instruments and produce his music. After graduating, he moved to New York to intern at Electric Lady Studios, founded by Jimi Hendrix, where he turned down an assistant job to focus on his own music and adventures. These eventually led him to Hamburg, Germany, where he released an album with his five-piece band, "Gløde." His path later took him to India, where he met his spiritual teacher, Anandji. With Anandji's guidance, he began curating and producing mantra music, ultimately falling in love with yoga and exploring ways to blend its teachings with his musicality.
Continuing his journey of self-discovery, Simon has transitioned from playing conventional concerts to exploring new ways of sharing the joys of music and community. By combining the traditional concert experience with the yogic sing-along practice of "Kirtan," as well as modalities like ecstatic dance and the medicinal use of raw ceremonial cacao, Simon continues to expand his global tribe of life-lovers wherever he shares his unique voice.
