Simeon Shinkfield sang in pubs and shows and in 2007 tour extensively the east coast of Australia and visit NZ and the USA for the first time. With such great acceptance of the music and the stories behind it, Simeon and guitarist Graham Moyle decided to hit the scene full time in 2008.
The year began with a full band tour of NSW, the recording of a new album, and acoustic duo tours of TAS, WA and QLD, not to mention a spattering of shows across VIC.
A new journey begins for the second half of 2008 as the new album, "Then We Collide" is launched. Extensive touring of Australia is currently being pieced together as the first single, "All Remains Is Love" is released to radio.

REVIEW ABOUT HIM:
“Simeon is captivating. He entertains and connects in a way that digs much deeper than the surface. With a desire for all to live to the full as the Creator intended, Simeon isn't afraid to explore life in his songs -- the good, bad and the ugly. With high energy and well crafted lyrics, he communicates a message of hope.”
Simeon's musical experience both in Australia and internationally has involved work with some of the most reputable organisations. He has teamed up with groups such as "Here for Life" (youth suicide prevention) alongside Eddie McGuire and Vanessa Amorosi; and with "Youth Alive" alongside bands such as Antisceptic and The Paul Colman Trio and speakers such as Reggie Dabbs. Simeon's experience of living in West Africa for two years has also led to partnership with groups like CBM (Christian Blind Mission) to explore ways of helping the poorest of the poor.
With his previous album, "Framed", Simeon had extensive radio play on countless community radio stations as well as commercial spins across Australia on the Austereo Network. With the new album "Then We Collide" already on the lips of punters and industry people alike, Simeon is again expected to move people with the message and atmosphere of his songs.
