ABOUT MADDY (In her own words) …

‘My name is Maddeline Simnor and I am a very passionate 17 year old who loves the gift of music and song. I have been playing and singing since I was a budding 7 or 8 year old and more recently, I have been and am writing my own songs. I love all kinds of music, while being very passionate about soul, R&B and a bit of hip hop, which comes through in my playing, singing and personality. I believe in the power of music to move, heal and inspire people, and I consider serving others with my gift, an absolute privilege and honour and not something to be taken lightly. I have experience in performing in bands and also as a solo artist.’

 

EXAMPLES OF SONGS (Maddy is happy to learn a song for you too):

Tennessee whiskey

True colours

Punchline

Dancing on my own

Imagine

Roots

Best part

Simply the best

I will always love you

Can’t help falling in love

Whakamoemati

One day at a time

I’d rather go blind

Halo

]]> Brief Bio
Born in Scotland, I first picked up the guitar and sang from the age of 14 at High School and played in many cover bands all across the UK and have just recently played my 1000th gig.

Eventually in 2011 I moved to sunny Marlborough at the top of New Zealand’s South Island. I can play a wide variety of covers from the 60,s all the way through to 2021 and am available for any type of function, wedding or party. I can do either an acoustic guitar/vocal set or an electric guitar/vocal set with full professional backing tracks.

]]> TAKE NOTE (available as a duo or solo act).

Witness just one performance from ‘Take Note’ and it’s easy to recognise their experience and professionalism. They deliver with such unreal energy and accuracy, it’ll send shivers down your spine… and while they’re doing so, they’re having a ball! Their extensive repertoire ranges across most genres, keeping up with the hits in the charts of this week, but not forgetting the classics that everyone wants to hear.

An extensive lighting show which operates in sync with the songs, and a ‘second to none’ sound system which reproduces the bands sound with such depth and clarity, you’ll think you’re listening to the original artist.

*A sound system is provided by this artist that can support an audience of up to 200 people. DGM can provide a larger sound system to support your event if required.
