Simon McBride

Former Young Guitarist of the Year.

Contemporary blues-rock packed with energy and memorable hooks.

Irishman Simon McBride evokes the spirit of such great bands as Free and Led Zeppelin; that point in musical history when blues guitar blossomed into a sound and an attitude of mind that defined a generation and continues to inspire.

As both a virtuoso guitarist and an Irishman (Hailing from near Belfast, Northern Ireland) comparisons are often made with Rory Gallagher and Gary Moore, although he sounds like neither in particular, having developed a style and a sound that is all his own.

Simon McBride’s talent as a guitarist is undeniable. Simon first started playing at age 10 and, completely self-taught, entered and won Guitarist Magazine's Young Guitarist of the Year competition when he was only 15, with a performance that stood head and shoulders above some very strong competition.

He was immediately recruited by Sweet Savage (Vivian Campbell, Def Leppard) with whom he recorded two albums and regularly played major festivals. That was 13 years ago, and since then he has toured the world as guitarist for diverse acts, including Grammy nominated soul-man Andrew Strong.

Along the way he has had the pleasure of sharing the stage with artists like TM Stevens, Charlie Morgan, Zorro, Hugh Burns, Slash and Steve Lukather. In addition to such a talented player, all the time there has been lurking behind his guitar an outstanding voice and a talent for song writing that has now finally seen the light of day with the release of debut album, Rich Man Falling; a CD of 11 original songs, and including bonus versions of Be My Friend (Free) and Power of Soul (Hendrix).
