TOP STORIES
Singer songwriter and classically trained pianist, Simonne Weeks, draws inspiration from artists as diverse as Nick Cave, Patti Smith and Chopin. Together with the band they bring lyrical poetry to life with driving rhythm. They take you down the road marked out by haunting and delicate sounds of the piano and Simonne's voice with hints of PJ Harvey and Kate Bush.
Literature, film, poetry and life’s mysteries underpin the unique songwriting style. Love Like You Never has classic themes of hurt, betrayal and love. ‘I want to love like I’ve never been hurt before/ I want to love so it doesn’t hurt no more.’ The chorus is more like a mantra with its crescendo of vocals, slide bass, pounding drums and piano screaming in unison of one’s desire to love in spite of hurt.
A regular on the Brighton music scene, Simonne and The Dark Stars never fail to please the audience, especially with the well-remembered track, Don’t Be Late. The syncopated drumming and piano raise a glass to the dark cabaret and vaudeville shows of The Dresden Dolls.
Simonne is accompanied by Brighton’s finest musicians; Mark Robbins (Dead Whisky) on bass, Billy Poole on drums and Jules Lawrence (Sandy Dillon, Fat 45) on Saxophone, Saw & Harmonica.
Simonne & The Dark Stars have played live shows in London & South of UK at The Rattlesnake, WaterRats, The Brunswick and festivals.
