Biography
[edit]Simon moved from Brazil to Los Angeles in 1985 and shortly after formed the band Agent X, with guitarist Billy D'Vette (Pair-A-Dice), they recorded "Rock n Roll Angels" with Kim Fowley (Kiss & Runaways). He then merged with former Rough Cutt members Amir Derakh, Matt Thorr and Dave Alford and started Jailhouse. In the mid-'90s, Simon formed a band called Flood that signed to Interscope Records, produced by Bob Marlette and Terry Date. In 2013, the band Jailhouse did a reunion show on the Monsters of Rock Cruise and later that year he was asked to join Autograph because Steve Plunkett was not being interested in doing the reunion tour.[1]
