“For me, interpersonal relationships are an absolutely fundamental part of my existence,” says Highland Sanctuary and wrote the country song “That’s When I Calm Down” on this topic. And actually you don’t even have to mention it anymore with the Swiss multi-talent, because it has become a matter of course for him: Highland Sanctuary once again played all the instruments himself and is also responsible for the great production.
An impressive performance and an impressive song. A soundtrack for the dear people who help us to cope with the difficult life situations and everyday stress.

In June 2019 Highland Sanctuary released his first song “Hold Me Tight”. Since then, he inspires as a one-man show at concerts and his music can be heard on major radio stations in Switzerland, the Arab region, South Africa and many other countries.
Now the Swiss multi-talent is releasing new sounds. With “Weekend” Highland Sanctuary releases his first song in 2021 and we get to hear a more modern country sound. Still Highland Sanctuary is playing all instruments by himself, sings and has also written all songs by himself. But that’s not all, he produces all songs in his own recording studio Famous Sound Productions.
Who would have ever imagined this: meeting friends nowadays comes with several restrictions and has become rarer. Highland Sanctuary: “For me it is something extremely valuable to forget time and space together with friends and just have a good time. Right now, this has gained huge value.”
The song “The Weekend” is about this topic and combines it with music that makes you forget your worries and enjoy the times you spend together with your friends.

Especially the challenging time with the corona virus and the associated restrictions of daily life makes us consciously learn to live in the moment again. In our fast-paced life we too often forget to enjoy the moment and not to deal with tomorrow. What tomorrow will bring is not really predictable and corresponding spirals of thoughts take us away from the present.
This is what the song “Before Tomorrow” by the multi-talent Highland Sanctuary from Berne is about.
A very soulful pop song, which spreads the moment of enjoyment in a contagious way.
Also on “Before Tomorrow” Highland Sanctuary plays all instruments by himself, sings, wrote and produced the song himself.

Video production Binggeli Media

The world’s most famous Christmas carol “Silent Night” was dressed in the popular Irish folk sound garb of the Swiss all-rounder Highland Sanctuary. For once a song not written by himself, but otherwise as usual everything else from Highland Sanctuary. Whether it’s playing the double bass, producing the song, or in this case producing a music video, Highland Sanctuary hasn’t been afraid to realize everything himself for this emotional, beautiful Irish folk version of the Christmas classic.

Behind the new Swiss folk-pop act Highland Sanctuary is the young, extremely talented musician, singer/songwriter and music producer Simeon.
The artist from Berne grew up in a family of musicians. As a child he attended piano and percussion lessons and at high school he also had guitar lessons and acquired music theoretical knowledge. Afterwards, he deepened his knowledge and skills at the University of Music. As versatile as his father, who is a professional musician, Simeon taught himself other instruments such as electric bass, contrabass, banjo, alto saxophone, trumpet and tin-whistle.
It doesn’t really sound like it, but Highland Sanctuary is a one-man band. Simeon plays all the instruments himself, sings and has written all the songs himself. But not enough, he produced all songs in his own recording studio Famous Sound Productions.This concept is also consistently applied live: Highland Sanctuary presents a crazy one-man-show!
The debut single and other songs are planned for 2019. The productions are in their final stages, and the production of a music video in Ireland is currently underway. As the term “Highland” indicates, instruments from Irish folk music are mainly used.
Influenced by The Passenger and Mumford and Sons, Highland Sanctuary creates an unmistakable sound that is guaranteed to sweep people away on the radio, in pubs and at festivals. Highland Sanctuary – one of the most promising new acts in 2019!
