Sim isn’t a die hard fan of many things, but this band had him at this song. We hope you enjoy what turned out to be a lovely chat about the right tune landing at the right time, and all the joy that’s rolled out since.
This is our pal and neighbour Sim Walker, and his chosen Survival Song, ‘22: The Death of All the Romance’ by The Dears.
Leeds-based pianist and composer Simeon Walker has quickly emerged as a leading light in the burgeoning modern classical scene. Regularly performing and touring across the UK and Europe, he has appeared at Latitude and Timber festival and supported musicians such as S. Carey, LYR, Submotion Orchestra, Neil Cowley and Erland Cooper. He’s received over 40 million streams across platforms, with his music frequently broadcast across a range of radio stations.
An in-demand collaborator, speaker, consultant, educator and arranger, he also works as a session musician. He founded and continues to curate Brudenell Piano Sessions - an event series highlighting the diverse and eclectic music being written and performed with the piano, hosted at one of the UK’s most iconic grassroots music venues, Brudenell Social Club in Leeds.
