“Fly me to the moon, let me sing among those stars” croons Simavi, hailed as the “new Frank Sinatra” by the New York Observer. Simavi’s smooth presentation of beloved American standards has thrilled live and TV audiences from New York to Florida and beyond. Simavi is one of the preeminent pop singers of his generation. For over three decades, he has performed with a plethora of stars in Music and Television. Simavi has taken the stage with his unique spin on classics and standards at some of the world’s most revered music arenas, including New York’s Lincoln Center, Florence Gould Hall, The Lighthouse, Joe’s Pub and Florida’s Hamlet Country Club. He has also wowed audiences on T.V. and Radio, appearing on the Joe Franklin, Jim Lowe, Dorothy Dunne, and David Kenney Shows. This renowned singer has risen to heights of critical acclaim and touched a loyal fan base, but his story and inimitable talent have very humble roots. Some of his earliest, fondest memories involve family and music. “My father loved Johnny Mathis,” recalls Simavi. “My mom loved pop music and listening to records with my parents really helped develop my love and interest in music.” From there, he taught himself to play piano, sparking a life-long fondness for the standards. After graduating from college, Simavi debuted as a solo performer at the United Nations. The comparisons to “Ol’ Blue Eyes” were immediate. Soon, the legends of the music industry began to take notice of his considerable talent. Now, relying on arrangements from such masters as Quincy Jones, Johnny Mandel, Nelson Riddle, & Billy May, along with stellar contributions from a wondrous fifty piece orchestra, Simavi has executive-produced Memories Of You, an album honoring legendary pop songs from throughout the ages. His debut masterpiece includes the classics his fans know and love, from “ Fly Me To The Moon “ to “ The Way You Look Tonight “, as well as little known gems like “Love Looks So Well On You”, “To The Ends Of The Earth”, and “Tell Her You Love Her”. As a bonus, Memories Of You is an enhanced CD, and features a video of a live performance from Simavi at Lincoln Center in New York City ( viewable on any DVD or CDRom player ). Available through Amazon.com, CDBaby.com, and iTunes.com, Memories Of You is a compilation to be treasured for years to come.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Simavi with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Memories Of You"
“Memories Of You” is a noteworthy release by the male vocalist known as Simavi. Simavi gives us a look at the past and into the future, putting his spin on both the classic and contemporary. He breathes freshness into jazz standards, keeping the beauty and integrity of the original, yet making them his own by infusing his style, personality, and flair into each track. Simavi also self-produced the album, further highlighting his personal stamp on this collection. From the lush string arrangements of “Moonlight in Vermont” and “Love Looks So Well On You” to the swinging renditions of “The Way You Look Tonight” and “Fly Me To The Moon,” Simavi is comfortable and at home in each setting. He is backed by an incredible orchestra of talented musicians featuring brilliant soloists, swinging horn sections, and well-crafted arrangements. His versatility is also on full display as he moves seamlessly through the Brazilian number “The Girl From Ipanema” and the more contemporary style of “To the Ends of the Earth.” He also adds his sincere, heartfelt vocal style to the touching ballads “I Wish You Love” and “Memories of You.” Simavi’s “Memories Of You” will be enjoyed by fans of adult contemporary male vocalists and/or big band music. -Rodney and the RadioIndy.com Reviewer Team |
