Simon Dawes is a rock band from Southern California. They have released two EPs and have recently released their first full album, Carnivore.
In spite of the name, none of the members of the band are named Simon, nor Dawes. The name comes from middle names of the singer and guitarist. The members of the band are Taylor Goldsmith (vocals and guitar), Blake Mills (guitar), Wylie Gelber (bass), and Stuart Johnson (drums).
Goldsmith and Mills have played music together since junior high school. Their previous band, Bridge 22, was an ugly noise, and evolved into Simon Dawes before the two graduated high school.
Simon Dawes gained most of their current recognition through a tour with Maroon 5, and have since toured with Eisley, The Walkmen, The Like, and Band of Horses, among other artists.
Their first full album, Carnivore, was released on September 12, 2006, and contains twelve tracks.
