SPENCER SIMS- Artist Bio Spencer Sims is a born and raised Chicago-native who’s brought a soulful and experimental sound to the rap scene since he started rapping in 2012. A triple threat performer, songwriter, and producer, Sims has a prolific output and has recorded over 100 tracks in 2021 alone. His first year of streaming yielded him over 120k streams on Spotify, and another of his self-produced albums is set to release within the next year(2022). When asked what he’d like to bring to the music scene, Spencer Sims says, “I want to push the boundaries and blur the lines within the genres we know and love. I want to open the listeners mind to a side of the music scene that is not tapped into often. Vulnerability, openness and transparency over some of the most interesting and forward thinking production I can come up with is what I hope to deliver on every album and single.” “Growing up in Chicago in an environment that can be so hostile at times I try to give the listener a unique experience full of both ugly truths and reassurance that there is light at the end of the tunnel. I PROMISE i am the producer/artist for you, I will treat every job I get with the same care that I would give my own music. LET'S MAKE SOME IMPACTFUL MUSIC.

Originally from Highland Park, IL, Tommy has been crafting music since grade school. Though his main genre is indie pop-rock, he is versatile across multiple styles, making him an ideal collaborator for a range of musical projects.

Tommy’s influences include '60s legends like The Beatles, The Kinks, and Harry Nilsson, and his music reflects a journey of growth and openness. He holds an MFA in Production, Technology, and Innovation from Berklee College of Music (Valencia Campus) and has studied songwriting at NYU’s Steinhardt School. Among his standout projects is his latest EP, a six-song collaboration with Grammy-winning producer Neal Pogue and multiple members of Earth, Wind & Fire, set for an upcoming promotional launch. His recent LP, A Message From Your Mind, produced by Salim Nourallah, delves into mindfulness, ego, and emotional well-being, showcasing Tommy’s evolving introspection. As a versatile composer and musical director in Chicago’s comedy scene, Tommy has directed and composed music for The Revival, Second City Grad Revue, and various indie comedy groups. His skills in piano, production, and live performance make him a valuable partner for anyone seeking a songwriter, composer, or musical director.
