Biography
A New Live Era
“Instrumental roots. A new voice. A live band.”
Babbage is the electronic project of West Kelowna producer and multi-instrumentalist Bradley Simons. After building an audience through a prolific catalog of instrumental chillsynth, synthwave and cinematic electronic music, Babbage is entering a new era with vocals and live-band energy at its center.
A new four-song EP reimagines some of Babbage's strongest instrumental material as vocal-driven songs, rebuilt around live drums, bass, synthesizers and guitar. Onstage, Babbage performs as a two or three-piece electronic band, never a DJ set.
This is the live debut of Babbage, but not the debut of a new performer. Simons has played thousands of shows as a touring musician and hired gun. His production work has received four Juno Award nominations, while the Babbage catalog has generated more than six million streams and repeat Spotify editorial support.
