Simon Stribling inherited his musical talents, growing up in a musical household and beginning trumpet at the age of five. A renowned musician on trumpet, trombone, and saxophone, as well as a much-loved vocalist, Simon brings a rare joyfulness, freedom, and vitality that are the hallmarks of this style. From his early days playing with some of the most legendary Australian jazz greats, Simon has toured the world before settling in Canada, eventually right here in Victoria!
