Simon Lynge in Concert

International touring artist Simon Lynge will play at the Women’s Club in Chico on Sunday November 19th, at 4 pm as a presentation of the Paradise Arts, Theatre, and Culture Hub (PATCH). Simon Lynge's music has a way of captivating one's soul, at once melodic and sensitive yet powerful in its presence and boldness. His poetic lyrics speak candidly from personal experience, sometimes of inner darkness, often of uncontainable joy. Astute observations of our world and humanity weave their way in, along with a deep appreciation of the beauty of life. Simon grew up in both Denmark and Greenland and is half indigenous Inuk (singular of Inuit). He feels a strong affinity for his arctic homeland, with its abundant, unspoiled vistas and deep connection to Earth and its creatures. Lynge has been honored with a nomination from the 16th annual Independent Music Awards for his album, The Map of Your Life, and has opened for the likes of Emmylou Harris. Music Week Magazine said, “Lynge's music is a brand of quite faultless melodic rich pop.” Simon's music brought him to Copenhagen first, then to the UK and the US. He has had several song placements on US network television and film and has performed at Glastonbury Festival in Great Britain.
