Bio
SiM - Current form is musical Duo, Paul Simmons (Founder, song writer, and driving force) and John Watkinson (Bass player and long-time musical collaborator). Previous incarnation included 'The Divide' and 'Magenta Blue' - 6 and 5 piece line ups respectively.
Whilst on the road with 'the divide' we were lucky to have a significant following whilst gigging around ourlocal north west venues. Packing the houses with our own inimitable brand of blues rock music. People from all ages and musical backgrounds would come and listen to our music on a regular basis.
For the last year or so we have concentrated on recording songs, trying to oompile the current album. Hoping to gig the new songs in the early summer 2005. Keep one eye here for dates and venues.

Having worked with various musicians over many years, Paul still very much enjoys writing songs and playing the guitar with his musical peers.
John - started playing the bass at high school and has never looked back...
