Simon and his talented group consisted of drummer Adam Cruz; bassist Reuben Rogers; and special guests percussionist Luisito Quintero, and vocalist Magos Herrera from Mexico.

On his new album femeninas: Songs Of Latin American Women (ArtistShare Records,2023) Simon featured varied compositions popularized by women artists including: Rosa Passos, Elizabeth Morris, Marta Valdés and Georgina Hassan. Singer Herrera's voicing and fluid movements perfectly suited the warm JHL.
