Simone White

Hawaii born singer-songwriter Simone White has released eight albums spanning simple acoustic folk, Americana and electronic indie. She returns to Europe and the UK in 2026 after a touring hiatus of over ten years to play new material from her upcoming album, Semaphores, as well as her recent album Letter to the Last Generation and fan favourites.
You may remember her from her albums on the U.K. Honest Jon's label: I am the Man (2007) , Yakiimo (2009) and Silver Silver (2012) all critically acclaimed by Der Spiegel among others (MOJO, Uncut). German Rolling Stone made a five page focus piece on her in 2009 calling her "one of the really great American songwriters".

Simone White has had several songs placed in film and tv, notably- an award winning world wide television campaign for the Audi R8 and an Omega watch ad featuring Nicole Kidman.

She has been a featured vocalist and songwriter on a number of collaborations (Fol Chen, Reinier Zonneveld, Dive Index, The Wedding Present, The Happening) and she has toured with and opened for Little Dragon, Victoria Williams, Mark Eitzel, Andrew Bird, Nouvelle Vague, Thao, The Honest Jon's Chop Up with Damon Albarn, John C Reilly & Friends and others.

She currently lives in Connecticut and her day job is making light sculptures, a business she inherited from her artist father.

"Simone White has a voice like ether. It's sweetly airy and hypnotic. Hearing it can pull you under to a strangely beautiful, glittering world where nothing seems real." - NPR

"Silver Silver is...an album of cathartic intimacy, built around electronic textures and sparse percussion, with White's gently yielding, half-spoken vocals pitched, pleasingly, equidistant between Laurie Anderson and Joni Mitchell." -Four star review, MOJO

"Soft-voiced L.A. musician Simone White is the only singer-songwriter signed to Damon Albarn's eclectic Honest Jon's label, and her singular talents are evident on her haunting latest album, Silver Silver. […] the lean-in-to-listen compositions is what makes her performances so captivating." - TIME OUT NEW YORK

"The beguiling Los Angeles-based singer Simone White is known as much for her whispered vocals as for her smart songwriting." -THE HUFFINGTON POST
