Simple Minded Symphony

Simple Minded Symphony was originally founded after four eighth-grade band students heard Less Than Jake's "Does the Lion City Still Roar," and collectively said, "Why have we never heard this before?" First stop was a school talent show, and by the next year they were performing for most of the town on the main stage of the annual Relay For Life. Since then, it's been a whirlwind of gigs, songwriting, and many hours of simply hanging out as a band to forge a group whose number one priority is simply doing what they love: Playing music. This ska ensemble survived through two of its members moving away a mere two years after its founding, and have managed to expand into the Seattle area with performances and opportunities. While the future seems difficult to predict, Simple Minded Symphony is determined to put out as much quality material as they physically can.
