Allow us to introduce the Barbadian musician Simon Pipe. He may hail from the same small island paradise as super-star Rihanna, but Simon is a different kind of musician with a different kind of vibe. Who is he you may ask? 

How handy…here’s bio from his fan page

A skinny white boy who grew up on the sunny Caribbean island of Barbados, picked up a guitar and a notepad and started writing songs about the life he’s living. 

A bit of history - Having returned from London where Simon lived for 3 years studying audio engineering and working, he was quickly recruited as a guitarist for local reggae act Fully Loaded. Soon afterwards Simon was drafted as lead guitarist for local rock/funk act South 11 and also played guitar for several other acts including Blak Kla Soyl and David Kirton.
Simon has had the privilege of performing alongside acts such as Morgan Heritage, Anthony B, Buju Banton, Queen Ifrica, Jah Cure, Frankie Paul, The Martin Harley Band, The Dub Pistols and many many more.

What’s he up to now? - Glad ya asked. Simon is currently working on recording his own music, gigging, a bit of session work, having fun dealing with record labels and recording some of his favourite artists. He’s loving making music and he wants money. Seriously.
