Singer-songwriter Trey Simon stopped by “Live In The D” for this week’s Music Monday, bringing his signature soul and storytelling - and a message that’s as uplifting as it is honest.
“Detroit is gritty. Detroit is a place where people fight through things. We’re tough,” Simon said, explaining how the city shapes his sound. He added that the core of his songwriting is about honesty - holding space for the hard moments while still celebrating the wins.
Simon used his appearance to highlight a special show on Sept. 19: Concert for a Cause, which supports House of Providence in Oakland County. The nonprofit serves youth in the welfare and foster care systems with a learning center designed to provide a safe place to learn, grow and heal - work Simon called “incredible.”
In studio, he performed his song “Canaan,” a soaring, hopeful track about moving forward with purpose. The song is about embracing the journey, making peace with the past and stepping into what you’re meant to be.
Fans can find Simon on social media at @TreySimonMusic for updates on the Concert for a Cause and his latest releases.
