FNL: Simple Sessions

​Simple Sessions were initially formed as a recording/video project back in 2019 by bandleader Jon, mainly as a passion project initially and as a means to bring together some top professional musicians from in and around Leeds/Yorkshire as part of a collaborative project. Having now released 17 tracks worldwide, the project has gradually started to shift more towards live performances, whilst still continuing the recording work in the studio. The band performs covers of songs primarily in an Indie Soul/Contemporary R&B style, by the likes of Emily King, Kara Marni, Lianne La Havas and Hiatus Kaiyote, alongside various other similar artists.

The acoustic setup features Anna Hattam (vocals), Mila Lee (guitar/vocals), Jon Melville (piano/vocals) and Steve Hanley (drums/percussion).
