We are deeply saddened to share the heartbreaking news that Simon Andrews, beloved singer of the band Somethin’else, has passed away.
Simon was a one-of a kind soul a natural showman with boundless charisma, whose presence could light up any stage or gathering. Whether you were a lifelong friend or meeting him for the very first time, Simon had an incredible gift for making everyone feel welcome and valued.
He leaves behind a lasting legacy in the Hampshire music scene, where his energy, humour, and passion for performance inspired countless others. Simon wasn’t just a performer; he was a pillar of support for fellow musicians, always lifting others up and celebrating their talents as much as his own. His joy was infectious, his talent undeniable, and his spirit unforgettable.
For those who had the privilege of seeing him perform, working alongside him, or simply sharing a laugh in his company, the loss feels immense. A huge void has been left in our community and our hearts, and the stage will never feel quite the same without him.
Our deepest thoughts and condolences go out to his family, friends, and bandmates during this difficult time. We will raise a toast today in Simon’s honour, remembering the light he brought to all of us.
Rest in peace, Simon. Your music, your laughter, and your spirit will live on forever.
