Singer/songwriter Simon Curtis first gained recognition for the role of Royce
Du Lac in Nickelodeon’s 2009 TV musical “Spectacular!” Later that year he worked with
producer Jeff “Jaidon” Wells to focus on his music career. The result was the electronic
album “8 Bit Heart”, a concept album about a robot looking for love. Curtis released the
album for free via his website where more than 150,000 copies were downloaded within
the first two weeks of its release. This was a notable feat considering it was all done
independently. ”8 Bit Heart” features the songs ‘Delusional’, ‘Diablo’, ‘8 Bit Heart’, and
‘Beat Drop’.
On June 7th, 2013 Curtis released his second album “R∆” via the iTunes store; “R∆”
stands for Robot Army, a reference to his fans, and features the singles ‘Superhero’ and
‘Flesh’. Upon its release the album reached #20 on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Albums
Chart.
