GAGANEWS INTERVIEW SIMON CURTIS

An article by Ryan    10 Comments

Today we caught up with Simon Curtis, an up and coming pop artist who is literally on the cusp of taking over the world. His album “8 Bit Heart” was put up for free download less than two weeks ago and it has received an amazing response from so many people, many of them little monsters. So many media outlets have given the album a lot of exposure and his album has literally become an overnight internet sensation with over 100,000 downloads.

We chatted about everything, from his music to his inspirations and he even answered some questions from you little monsters off Twitter! Simon revealed his biggest obstacles in getting to this point and he also told us about what has motivated to work so hard toward getting his music out there to all of you fans. At the age of 18, Simon moved to Los Angeles with literally his car and his belongings in order to live out his dream.

We found his story to be very inspirational and it has genuinely moved us. We were big fans who listened to his album on a daily basis, but after this interview we are even bigger fans than we were before.

For someone who has had no financial backing from a record label, the album matches and exceeds the quality of major artists today who have had the finance and the backing to produce material. It is only a matter of time before Simon gets signed and becomes an international superstar, he has the look, the talent and the charisma of a pop star.

We need you to help us out. In an hours time we are going to try and get #SimonCurtis trending on Twitter to raise awareness of this amazing musician. We would appreciate your help in doing this.

Thank you Simon for doing this interview, You were a pleasure to talk to and we really appreciate you giving us your time. All the best xoxo
