Musical artist
Shlomo Simcha Sufrin, better known as Shlomo Simcha (Hebrew: שלמה שמחה) is a UK-born Canadian Hasidic Jewish cantor and singer. Shlomo Simcha began his career in a small kollel in Montreal, where he was discovered by a local wedding band leader[1] who brought him onto a project recording a series for children in the Satmar community called Besof Umachol. His work on the series caught the attention of Mendy Werdyger at Aderet Records, who introduced him to producer Sheya Mendlowitz, with whom he would create his first commercial album.[1]
In 1992, Shlomo Simcha found himself flying to Israel to perform on stage with Mordechai Ben David at a concert in Yad Eliyahu, Tel Aviv during the holiday of Sukkot – his first major exposure to audiences and other names in the world of Jewish music. That exposure led to the first of many invitations to perform at the annual A Time for Music benefit concert, in support of the Jewish non-profit agency HASC, and the beginning of his relationship with composer and musical artist Abie Rotenberg, with whom he would create the popular Aish music series.[1]
Since the start of his career, Shlomo Simcha has released seven solo albums and collaborated or been featured on over 20 albums, with artists, arrangers, and composers like Benny Friedman, Nafshenu Orchestra, Yossi Green, Moshe Laufer, Suki Berry / Suki & Ding, Yisroel Lamm (the Neginah Orchestra), and more. He regularly performs at benefit concerts[2] and Jewish community events across North America, the UK and Israel, as well as private and corporate functions.
