I'm one of the world's top concertina players (it sounds like an accordion but better!) who specialises in Scottish folk music but can play anything from folk to world to inserts in dance and pop music. I can sound like an accordion or bandoneon as well and can play in any key. I work quick too!
I'm a Scottish concertina player who has performed and recorded all over the world. I mainly play Scottish folk music but I have worked with jazz and pop musicians on stage and in the studio. I've made 20 solo albums and performed on many others so I know about speed in the studio and getting it right first time whilst sounding good.
I'm up for trying anything as I love making and listening to new music. You can watch me on Youtube here https://www.youtube.com/user/simonthoumire1 and my website is http://www.simonthoumire.com
An upload I recently made to Soundcloud of me on concertina and pianist David Milligan has had over 1.04M downloads.

check_circleVerifiedSimon's playing is just wonderful! He understood the project and what I needed, and added his own creativity to the brief, too.
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Simon.
