Szymon

A talented but troubled multi-instrumentalist and vocalist/songwriter whose honeyed falsetto and pure pop acumen didn’t enter the general public sphere until 3 years after his loss of life, Szymon Borzestowski’s evocative mixture of folk, pop, and electronica occupied that impalpable nice place between inclusive and otherworldly. Given birth to in Newcastle, Australia in 1989 to Polish immigrants, Szymon was the 3rd of four kids. Raised within an acutely musical home, an early on infatuation with jazz, bebop, and golf swing led the budding designer to take in the clarinet and saxophone, which he became quite proficient. As the years advanced, Szymon added acoustic guitar, flute, bass, drums, and piano to his progressively huge arsenal of sonic weaponry, and upon graduating from senior high school, he became a grasp of home sound creation. In 2008 he started buying his four-song demonstration around, but was struggling to protected much curiosity. That same 12 months he embarked on the long-planned visit to European countries and Africa, even though he was aside, his dad, Andrzej, sent his demonstration to EMI, where it serendipitously got around the table of skill scout Tag Holland, who was simply immediately transfixed with what he noticed. The label provided Szymon a advancement offer, and within weeks of coming back house from his journeys overseas, he had started writing and documenting what would ultimately become his debut record. What implemented was some depression-induced psychological breakdowns that led to multiple hospitalizations. Throughout that period Szymon also started having uncertainties about his musical result, going as far as to delete documents and sell off a lot of his devices. In Dec 2012, soon after turning 23, Szymon took his personal life. Using the blessing of his family members, Holland and Vice Chief executive of A&R Craig Hawker earned producers and technicians Rusty Santos and Ian Pritchett to combine the tunes that Szymon experienced delivered to EMI back 2009. The posthumous Tigersapp premiered in 2015.
