FIRST SINGLE "UNCONDITIONAL" REACHED TOP 12 AT AC RADIO

(New York, NY) - Simon Collins will make his U.S. television debut with an appearance on the CBS Saturday Early Show on December 27th. Performing songs from his U.S. debut album, U-CATASTROPHE, Collins will showcase his unique blend of genres ranging from pop and rock to electronic music. His first single, "Unconditional," has reached #12 on the R&R AC Radio Chart, receiving great play at key stations WLIT/Chicago, KVIL/Dallas, KRWM/Seattle, and WMJX/Boston. Released a few months ago, Collins has been featured in People Magazine, US Weekly, Modern Drummer, and Billboard raved Collins "has a knack for crafting instantly recognizable pop melodies."

Simon follows in his father, Phil Collins,' musical footsteps. He picked up the drumsticks at a very early age and eventually began playing guitar and piano, honing and crafting his original material. For Collin's U.S. debut release, U-CATASTROPHE, he teamed with producer/engineer Kevin Churko, 2008 Juno Award winner for "Producer of the Year." Standout tracks include "Disappearing" and "Powerless," as well as more tender moments on songs "Us (love transcends)" and "Unconditional." One of the album's shining moments is "The Big Bang," a bombastic and inventive instrumental track which sees Simon teaming with his father for the very first time. DRUM Magazine described the song as "a barbaric, Reznor-esque, six minute stomp through dense, concussive jungles."
