Biography

2021| Bahía Margarita 

In his own words;

“After the success of my previous albums (Ciclo, Mujer Electrica, Triste Pero Fresh) I felt creatively stuck. I have always shown evolution in the projects I do, but Bahia Margarita is the most different work I have done. I had a hard time getting there, I had to tear down my entire process and change it from the root. Previously my music was always tied to specific moments and people in my life. With Bahía I wanted to get away from that and focus on what I would like to be living while still maintaining the intimacy that characterizes my songs. Sometimes it takes a little daydreaming to be able to face the realities of life. This pandemic caught us all by surprise. The confinement allowed me to imagine a place where everything is simpler and more joyful. We all have our Bahía Margarita. I hope that those who listen to this  album will be transported to magical places where their memories merge with their dreams and find reasons to celebrate how wonderful life is. Much of the album was produced by Jose Luis Pardo, my mentor in this career and producer of both my previous albums. Another part was produced by Manuel Lara, one of the top producers of the new generation. Together with the guys from the band (Rodrigo Gamboa and Jose Adames) we produced a track (Las Olas). And I took the risk of producing the interludes by myself from my home studio. Everything was recorded between New York, Miami, and Venezuela. With nothing more to say ... I give you Bahía Margarita, my third studio album, and my most ambitious project to date.”

2017 | Ciclo

Simon Grossmann is Venezuelan-American artist that has shown a great ability to constantly evolve. With Ciclo, his first studio album, produced by GRAMMY nominated producer Jose Luis Pardo (Rawayana, Los Amigos Invisibles, Camila Luna, etc)  Simon surprised a lot of people with a style that had no precedent in the Miami music scene. His beachy, singer-songwriter vibe quickly gained the attention of a diverse crowd whom you could see  singing along to songs like “Agüitaecoco” and “Limon y Sal” at his shows. Only a few months after releasing Ciclo, Simon was invited to perform at SXSW, Hermoso Ruido, and a couple of tours around Mexico, Colombia and the East Coast of the US.

With catchy riffs, powerful songwriting, and a matured identity, Simon’s second album, Mujer Eléctrica, cemented him as one of Miami’s best songwriters and most promising latin indie acts. His sophomore album took his music to new places, taking him on sold out tours through Europe, Latin America, North America and the Caribbean. He has shared the stage with iconic artists like Fonseca, Cultura Profetica, Los Amigos Invisibles, Rawayana, Caloncho, and many more. He has also collaborated with various artists including Los Rivera Destino, Anakena, Viniloversus, Camila Luna, and more on the way. 

2020 | Triste Pero Fresh

In the early days of the pandemic, Simon released what some consider his best work up to date, Triste Pero Fresh, a 3 song break-up EP that was recorded in his own bedroom with the help of two friends and bandmates Jovi Adames and Rodrigo Gamboa. He was scheduled to go on a Summer tour but we all know what happened…
