Simon Walther is a Norwegian multi-instrumentalist and singer whose music takes the listener on a post-rock journey through rolling, dreamlike soundscapes — where beautiful melodies meet rattling drums and skillfully crafted guitar work. His sound balances atmosphere and emotion, rooted in rock while occasionally touching on subtle country influences.

Simon released his debut solo album, Leave The Sinking Ship Behind, in 2012. The album received unexpectedly strong reviews in both Sweden and Norway and led to several interviews in Norwegian newspapers, marking his arrival as a distinctive new voice in the Scandinavian alternative scene.

In November 2012, Simon Walther and his band opened for Norwegian artist Tommy Tokyo at a sold-out S:t Croix in Fredrikstad. In 2015, Simon returned to the same venue for a more intimate performance, presenting new material from his upcoming album in a stripped-down acoustic format.

His second album, Byen brenner, was released during a live show in Oslo on May 21, 2015, following the release of the singles Blikk søker blikk and the title track Byen brenner. The album further expanded Simon’s atmospheric sound and solidified his position as a compelling live performer.

In 2020, Simon released his third album, Høsten kom, a collection of singles originally released between 2017 and 2020. Since then, he has continued to release new music, adding several standalone singles that further explore his evolving sonic landscape.

Simon Walther’s music is driven by a rock foundation and a strong sense of melody, blending cinematic textures with an intimate, emotional core.
