Simon Le Bon
Biography
Simon Le Bon is an English singer who became the frontman of the new wave band Duran Duran in 1980, after studying drama at the University of Birmingham. Born in Bushey and trained as an actor, he joined the group as it was getting started, and its early albums, Duran Duran (1981), Rio (1982) and Seven and the Ragged Tiger (1983), made the band famous within the New Romantic movement. He also formed the offshoot Arcadia, and sang on the Band Aid charity single Do They Know It's Christmas? Later Duran Duran records included the Wedding Album, whose single Ordinary World returned the group to the top ten, and Astronaut, made after the original lineup reunited. He has won three Ivor Novello Awards, one of them for outstanding contribution to British music, received an MBE in 2024, and has hosted the music show WHOOOSH! since 2020.
