Double bass – Bass guitar – Piano
Simon is now managing Events and Operations at Chetham’s!
He studied audio and video engineering at university, freelanced as a lighting and sound engineer, came back to Chetham’s as a music technology teacher and has held a variety of roles here since then. Simon also maintains a second life as a semi-pro bass player, both double and electric…
“I have mostly fond memories of the place although very different to how it is today! Gave me a good musical education and opportunities that I wouldn’t have had in my home town. Although I made the decision not to study music after leaving School, my time has not gone to waste as music is still my ‘other’ job.”
