After decades of playing and writing and releasing music with other artists, its time for SIMON HUSBANDS to release something that is uniquely his. POP is his debut release, a collection of sweet but hard rock and pop songs, telling stories and celebrating life.

Simon grew up listening to Top Of The Pops and John Peel. Lying awake at night listening to pirate radio and Peel, he loved the sounds of the 70's and bands like Roxy Music, The Sweet, Bowie and some of the groundbreaking punk bands. Playing in bands from an early age, he always liked good tunes and chords. Pop music was the soundtrack of his life. Eventually his band BLUE TRAIN was signed to BMG ( alongside great artists such as MATTHEW SWEET, PROCUL HARUM, TOOL and GREEN JELLO ). In 1991 the band had a record in the Billboard charts ( for 13 weeks ) called All I Need Is You. Simon traveled across the USA, met his wife and got married and became an ex-pat, living in Minneapolis, USA.

And now Simon gets to play music in Minneapolis. He performs periodically with a number of great local artists - The Katy Vernon Band, The Black Bluebirds, Kiki Lane, Thee Duke Of Dark, as well as a fabulous ABBA covers band, ABBAsolutely Fab! He also has a weekly radio show on KFAI 90.3 FM called TRUE BRIT! where he spins nothing but British music and shares stories of the music and culture he loves.

And now, he has a brand new album, his debut album. It's called POP. It is released almost exactly 30 years to the day that Simon first stepped foot into the USA. What took so long? Life.
