Simon's debut recording Awakenings contains songs designed to draw listeners closer to the Lord. Songs of exhortation and worship, as well as musical narratives of stories found in Scripture encourage believers to live out their faith so that Jesus Christ may be lifted up throughout the earth.

"This album is Christian music the way it should be...simply great, anointed, and artistic. Miner has reclaimed the original fire and passion that listeners love in the music of Keith Green,Rich Mullins, and Michael W. Smith."

This single recorded for Simon and his wife Rosemary's wedding party is a celebration of the love and commitment that is so central and foundational to a marriage. Only a few copies of this disc were produced.

Compilations and Contributions

The Inside Out Soul Festival at Loon Mountain, NH is a showcase of the best in both local and national talent in Christian Music. In the summer of 2000, Simon had the opportunity to perform with dozens of other gifted bands and songwriters at this event, and to contribute his song Eversong to this recording, a compilation of material from several of the artists at the festival.

One of the musicians who played on Simon's Awakenings record was Chris Brewer, fellow singer/songwriter and founder of Why Calvary? Ministries based in Jacksonville, FL. Simon lends his keyboard and vocal abilities to this project, Brewer's debut work. Why Calvary has received numerous accolades and extensive radio airplay throughout northern Florida.

This project by guitarist Rob Graves is a collection of songs dedicated to Rob's seven year old brother Logan, who died of cancer. When Angels Fly was recorded to help raise money for an organization to provide financial and emotional support to families who have lost children to terminal illnesses. Simon plays piano and keyboards on several tracks of this album.

This soul-searching collection of songs by Lapchild singer/songwriter Jori Butler almost didn't happen. One summer night, Jori found herself alone and without direction, her plans for these songs turned upside down. Simon played piano and keys with the band of musicians that the Lord used to bring Jori's dream to reality in this well-crafted work.

Simon played keyboard for a couple of tracks on this young and spunky sister duo's debut album. Talitha and Acacia are in their mid teens, and their music is full of fun and energy.
