Highland Sanctuary

Behind the Swiss act Highland Sanctuary is the young, extremely talented musician, songwriter and
music producer Simeon.
The artist from Bern, Switzerland grew up in a family of musicians. As a child he attended piano and
percussion lessons and at high school he also had guitar lessons and acquired music theoretical
knowledge. Afterwards, he deepened his knowledge and skills at the University of Music. As versatile
as his father, who is a professional musician, Simeon taught himself other instruments such as electric
bass, contrabass, banjo, alto saxophone, trumpet and tin-whistle.
It doesn’t really sound like it, but Highland Sanctuary is a one-man band. Simeon plays all the
instruments himself, sings and has written all the songs himself. But not enough, he produced all
songs in his own recording studio Famous Sound Productions. This concept is also consistently
applied live: Highland Sanctuary presents a unique one-man-show!
Highland Sanctuary released his first song “Hold Me Tight” in June 2019. Since then, he has been
wowing audiences at concerts, including at Europe’s biggest country music festival, the “Trucker &
Country Festival Interlaken”, and his music can be heard on major radio stations in Switzerland, South
Africa, the USA and many other countries.
Highland Sanctuary is currently flying back and forth to Nashville for meetings and songwriting
sessions. So far he has received several gold and platinum awards for his work.
