The Simon van Gend Band are an introspective indie/folk/rock band from Cape Town, South Africa, whose music has been described as a home-grown unique blend of folksie foot-tapping red wine fireside poetry. Simon van Gend plays acoustic guitar, sings and writes the songs, Eric Michot plays bass and Ross Campbell plays drums.
The band has recorded 5 albums of original songs. The 4th album, Blinking and Breathing, was produced by acclaimed Australian producer Ian Pritchett, famed for his work with Angus & Julia Stone and The Beautiful Girls. 
Between February 2014 and February 2105 Simon wrote a new song every week and posted it to his blog (www.asongaweek.simonvangend.com). During this time he also did solo tours of the US east coast and Germany. In September 2015, the band released a new album of the best of the songs from the ‘Song a week’ project.
“You stumble across one of his delightful pop songs on a friend’s computer and you wonder: why isn’t Simon van Gend better known? This new album is kiffness personified” Toast Coetzer – Rolling Stone
“It’s the songs that take you by surprise. Persuasive without being preoccupied, full of words without being wordy, delivering life’s lessons without being preachy, they never quite go where you expect.” – Richard Haslop, Audio Video
