About Simon Joyner

Simon Joyner is a renowned American singer-songwriter who first came
to prominence during the Lo-Fi movement of the early 90’s alongside
contemporaries mining similar territory like Will Oldham, Peter
Jefferies, the Mountain Goats, and Bill Callahan. Joyner
was championed early by the late British DJ, John Peel, who famously
played Joyner’s 1994 LP, “The Cowardly Traveller Pays His Toll”, start
to finish on one of his BBC programs, initially making Joyner more
well known overseas than in his own country. He is often referred to as one
of the forefathers of the Omaha music scene.

Following the mercurial path of heroes like Neil Young and Bob Dylan,
Joyner has been releasing literate and challenging albums
since the release of his first album, Room Temperature, in 1993. His
discography includes twenty-three full-length recordings, as well as numerous
singles and guest appearances. A book of his lyrics was released in
2016 under the title “Only Love Can Bring You Peace: Selected Lyrics
(1990-2014).” He tours the United States and Europe semi-regularly and
is the co-owner of the Grapefruit Records label.
