BIO  SIMONE

Simone grew up between France and Chicago, acting, modeling, dancing, and learning how to run her father's restaurant. While her father was running the restaurant, her mom was making sure she got to her piano lessons, voice lessons, dance recitals, auditions, performances, photoshoots, tennis practices, tap class, AND school; you name it, Simone was probably doing it. After joining S.A.G. at the age of 7, she had the chance to move to Los Angeles and be a child actor, but her mom wanted her to have a more normal life. Simone ended up failing 4th grade due to too many missed school days because she spent the year performing in a play at the Goodman Theatre. Only a high school freshman, she was chosen to join the Varsity hiphop dance team, winning championships around Illinois. It was in high school where her and her friends began producing and writing music. After graduating high school, she put her acting career on pause to go to college. After her first year pursuing a theater major in college, she switched her major to music, still dancing on her University's hiphop dance team. After experiencing heartbreak and using that to fuel her songwriting, Simone started working on her first album, 'Bisous.' A year after college graduation, she finally released her first album. Since then, she's been focused on building her career and is READY to take the world into her own hands with this new EP.
