Brett Simons on SoundBetter

I am an LA based session bassist, vocalist and producer. I thrive on the first listen impetus and follow my experience based instincts to lead me to a musically and sonically supportive part for the artist's song and creative vision - whether it be a melodic part weaving with the top line, or a foundational part that is felt, more than heard.

Bass player and vocalist for Chicago, Brian Wilson/The Beach Boys, Don Felder, Melissa Etheridge, Dwight Yoakam, Fiona Apple and many others.

Other work that spans the stylistic spectrum includes recordings by Dionne Warwick, Lowen & Navarro, Marc Martel, Alexi Murdoch, Michael Brook, Peter Himmelman, Kim Richey, Stan Ridgeway & Yoko Yazawa.

As a producer and songwriter, my work can be heard on the recent release by artist Brad Byrd 'If It's My Only Life.' On this track I created rhythm arrangements and parts, played bass, keys, guitar & percussion as well as crafting the vocal arrangements and singing BV's.
