Биография

Simon Lynge's music has a way of captivating the soul, at once melodic and beautiful, yet powerful in its presence and boldness. His lyrics are poetic, and speak candidly from personal experience, sometimes of inner darknesses and existential challenges. Astute observations of our world and humanity weave their way into his songs, and a real perception of the beauty of life leads the listener into a joyful space, even in the midst of deep sorrows. Recently honored with a nomination from the 16th annual Independent Music Awards, the Greenlandic-Danish singer songwriter recorded his latest album in a secluded cottage in the green hills of Wales, and in the eclectic atmosphere of Narcissus Studios in London. Deep Snow, a collaboration with longtime friend & musical partner Richard Lobb, was released on 23rd November 2018 via Integrity Records/Songcrafter Music. Simon grew up in both Denmark and Greenland. He always felt a strong affinity for his arctic homeland, with its abundant, unspoiled nature and deep connection to the earth and its creatures. Simon's musical roots come from Greenland, where his father is an acclaimed accordion player, and his grandfather was a composer and conductor and namesake of a church choir in Qaqortoq. Simon began singing as a boy in a church choir in Denmark, and was inspired to begin writings songs in his teenage years by the music of Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, Simon & Garfunkel and Crosby Stills & Nash, among others.
