About
Hello! Welcome to my Substack, The Cut Through. It’s lovely to have you here!
I’m Simeon Walker - a pianist, composer and independent musician/artist from Leeds in the UK. Thanks for being here; I’m looking forward to connecting with you.

What is The Cut Through?
This introductory article goes into much more detail about what I’m attempting to do here, what I’m interested in, and why I started The Cut Through.
However, I know we’re all a bit short on time, so the TLDR is:
Cutting through the noise
Meaningful, engaged connection & community
A place for space
Why subscribe?
I cherish what being an independent musician and artist offers me, however, it is increasingly difficult to get the right things in front of the right people. In an age where the buzz of instant gratification on social media reigns supreme, I’m interested in finding the people who want to go deeper and slower, knowing that the best things in life never happen in an instant.

Get stuck in…
There are a range of grouped-content elements, which you can see across the navigation bar. Each of these relate to thematic areas, which include:
A What’s New page, to keep tabs on all my new releases, videos and merch
Subscriber-only exclusive first-listens to new MTBM™️ works in progress
Voice-note updates - definitely Not A Podcast; often on-the-road
Info about future Get Togethers - upcoming live shows & tours
Deep Dive long-form articles/essays
An Ask Me Anything section
Sharing nice things with like-minded Kindred Spirits
ALL of the above is currently available for all-subscribers, mainly because there isn’t a paid subscribers distinction, as yet. This may change in the future, but I am really hoping to grow and develop somewhere for like-minded people to gather and be a greater, deeper part of what I am doing.
