New Artist 💜

Wow, it feels surreal to finally say this out loud: I'm here, I'm a new artist, and my name is Violet Simone! For so long, this dream has been brewing, and now it's finally taking flight. You might have seen my initial post, but I wanted to dive a bit deeper into what this journey truly means to me and what you can expect from my music. Being a 'versatile artist' isn't just a label for me; it's a reflection of my soul and the diverse sounds that have influenced me throughout my life. I grew up listening to everything from classic R&B to soulful jazz, and even a bit of pop and rock. I believe music shouldn't be confined to one box, and I aim to weave those different textures into my sound. My goal is to create music that speaks to a wide range of emotions and experiences, something for every mood. My debut single, 'Smooth Operator,' is just a taste of what's to come. It’s an R&B/Soul track that I poured my heart into, exploring themes of connection and allure. The process of writing and recording it was an incredible experience, from humming melodies in my head to finally hearing it come alive in the studio. It’s been a labor of love, and seeing the album art and imagining you all listening to it on your music players makes every late night worth it. I remember being inspired by so many sounds, even during quick trips, and the energy of places like Atlanta always fueled my creative spirit. The path of an emerging artist is definitely a rollercoaster. There are moments of doubt, endless hours of practice, and the constant hustle to get your voice heard. But then there are those magical moments – when a lyric just clicks, or a melody sends shivers down your spine, or when someone tells you your music touched them. Those are the moments that keep me going, reminding me why I started this in the first place. It’s more than just singing; it’s about sharing a piece of myself with the world. I'm so excited to share my journey with you all on Lemon8 and beyond. If you're looking for new music that's authentic, soulful, and just a little bit 'smooth,' I invite you to check out 'Smooth Operator' and follow along as I release more tracks. Your support means the world to me, and I can't wait to connect with you through my art. Let's make some musical memories together!
