Simon Laffy

Simon entered a professional career in music at 20 years old, signing three major record contracts and working as a composer, performer, producer and live artist. He has written and performed on 35 albums, composed film soundtracks, themes for commercials and television shows, and has played live concerts, TV and radio shows across the globe.

In the 1990's, he began working as a freelance journalist, producing copy for 'one-shot' magazines on music and sports. He currently contributes articles called ‘Make Better Music’ to the arts and culture magazine, Trebuchet.

In 2004, Simon’s continuing music career saw him become a member of Manraze, a glitter punk experiment alongside Paul Cook of the Sex Pistols and Phil Collen of Def Leppard. While also working commercially with members of Duran Duran, he gathered enough latent material to start writing novels.
