Tia Simone

Tia Simone was born and raised in Michigan, where she developed her passion for music at a very early age. Her mother, Marilyn Britt, PHD overheard her humming the entire Happy Birthday song without missing a note or a beat at 16 months—before she could even speak! Tia's mother recognized her musical talent early and influenced her to listen to many different genres while growing up, including Mozart, The Temptations, The Beatles, and James Brown. Tia's only vocal training in her early years was in choir at the Episcopal Church, where she was an active participant. The choir exposed her to classical music .

Tia was exposed further to classical music at Michigan State University when she was accepted to the Classical Performance Program. The program was an essential step in Tia's journey to fulfill her passion of music because it made her realize that her true passion was in jazz, blues and soul. With her new found desire, Tia packed her things, including her cat, and moved to California in 2004. Tia's hope in California was to connect with amazing and creative musicians like her.

Currently Tia resides in Hollywood, CA where she can be heard singing at various clubs and venues. Crowds at the Temple Bar in Santa Monica, On the Rocks in Long Beach and Mbar in Hollywood have had the pleasure of experiencing her sultry sound and high energy. Come hear her yourself!

"I live for singing! God blessed me with this gift and I cannot take it for granted. One day I would love to be able to sing infront of 50,000 people and for them to want to listen and appreciate my talent, but until then as long as one person hears me everyday I will be happy for the rest of my life!"
"Love Life, Live Love"
