He grew up in Mozambique on the East coast of Africa, in the capital city Maputo. Once, when he appeared on stage in Maputo, his manager asked him to come to London.
With first steps in show business in London, he has gathered invaluable experience for appearances in other European capitals. He gathered experience in doing gigs all over Europe.

Afric Simone speaks German, English, Portuguese, French and various African languages, however his songs are written in the mixture of Swahili and few words from other languages. This happy idea resulted in a mixture of his own native language and European sound.
Recently he settled in Germany, and has been appearing in TV shows in France, Italy, Germany and other countries.
