Biography

[edit]

Simo was born in Chicago in 1986.

As a guitarist, songwriter, producer and engineer, Simo has worked with Jack White (Beyoncé Lemonade sessions), Phil Lesh, James McCartney, Tommy Emmanuel, David Kahne, Cowboy Jack Clement, Dave Cobb, Paul Worley, George Porter, Anson Funderburgh, Peter Collins, Joe Bonamassa, Chris Isaak, Kirk Fletcher, Devon Allman, Samantha Fish and Tal Wilkenfelt. Baz Luhrmann used him on the soundtrack and score of the Elvis biopic. Every live guitar in the movie is played by Simo. In the upcoming film about Bruce Springsteen's Nebraska album, he has done a similar job.

He is a former member of the Don Kelley Band (2007–2012), a historic house band at Robert's Western World in Nashville, Tennessee; other alumni include Brent Mason, Troy Lancaster, Redd Volkaert, Johnny Hiland, Guthrie Trapp, Kenny Vaughan, Daniel Donato, Luke McQuery and bassist Dave Roe (Johnny Cash, Dwight Yoakam, John Mellencamp, John Prine), who recommended Simo for the guitar slot.

He was a member of the psychedelic rock band SIMO from 2012-2018. He has released four solo albums to date.

In 2020, he became a member and main player in the Guitar Community 2gthr.co founded by Marc de Lorenso.

Announced in 2024, Simo joined a new band with Luther Dickinson and Adam Abrashoff. An album titled Do The Rump was released in fall 2024. Like Dickinson, Simo is said to appreciate the North Mississippi blues with musicians like Jr Kimbrough, R.L. Burnside, Mississippi Fred McDowell and Othar Turner's pipe and brass music.

He resides in Nashville with his wife and daughter.
