SIM BALKEY:
http://digitalrodeo.com/users/simbalkey#profile-artist
If the right side of the brain is the creative hub and the left side tends to be more logical and analytical, then Sim Balkey is one of those rare individuals who have both sides fully engaged. After all, how many Country singers have a chemistry degree and moonlight in systems engineering at a National Laboratory? Balkey is obviously not your typical Country newcomer, but you’ll find quickly that it’s not because of his side job, but because of his sincerity as a Country artist.
Balkey has a distinctive voice that has been seasoned by years of live performance. Quite simply, he doesn’t sound like anyone else in Country music today. There’s an edgy intensity in his voice that brings out the best in every song, whether it’s a vulnerable ballad or uptempo party anthem. Balkey was born and raised in northern New Mexico, just south of the Colorado border, on a small farm— as Country as it gets. Playing over 500 dates over the last seven years, he has captured the attention of audiences throughout the Southwest and ever-increasingly across the country, converting them into devoted fans. Balkey has shared the stage with Eric Church, Clint Black, Love and Theft, Steve Holy, Mark Chesnut and many others. With an album just completed and ready to release, a recent single release doing great on radio and a solid touring band behind him, Sim Balkey is well on his way to a great future in Country music.
