Simone Borghi, born in Ancona Italy in 1975, at the age of 15 became one of the most active rock musicians in the Marche region. After a decade of paying dues in Italy, Simone reached Los Angeles, and recorded his first two CDs, For Many Years (2004) and By The Moon (2006), in collaboration with musician and producer James Raymond (son of David Crosby of CSN&Y), drummer Vinnie Colaiuta and bassist Tony Levin. In 2007 Borghi produced the State Of Grace Documentary (DVD & Book) which tells about his musical history in California and in 2008 he recorded the album Online with the collaboration of Toto members Steve Lukather and Simon Phillips, guitarists Frank Gambale, Dean Parks and Brian Ray (from Paul McCartney’s band) and jazz pianist from New York City, Rachel Z.
