In 1987, Simon Chardiet left Joey Miserable and the Worms and began the experiments that would lead to the inception of Simon and the Bar Sinisters in 1991.
The Bar Sinisters are a more raw-edged and uncompromising form of Rock n' Roll and early Punk ethos than the more funk and pop-oriented Worms were.
Simon is proud to announce that the band has now reformed to its orginal 1991 lineup.

  Simon and the Bar Sinisters   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
For the last decade and a half, Simon Chardiet has been a fixture in the clubs of New York City's East Village, where, when he's not surfing at Coney Island, he can be found holding forth with his scrappy trio, the Bar Sinisters.
Over the years the diminutive, chrome-domed guitarist has built a rep for fearsome instrumental skill and a high-octane sound that owes an equal debt to Johnny Burnette and Johnny Thunders.

 Simon & the Bar Sinisters
Led by guitar virtuoso Simon Chardiet, Simon and the Bar Sinisters make music that is truly unclassifiable.
Chardiet shifts effortlessly, both in terms of guitar and vocal style, from rockabilly to Big Star-type pop to snarling British punk, and then onto ZZ Top-ish riffing.

I got to the club at about an hour before the doors were scheduled to be opened, but it felt like more because only my friend was waiting there for me.
The Sinisters' set was pretty good, but it seemed boring at times.
Sitting in with the Slackers were 2 special guests: Agent Jay, and Simon (from the Bar Sinisters).

Simon Chardiet's early band shares this single with the Shitbirds.
Simon and the Bar Sinisters play a rugged punk variety of surf twinged music, while the Shitbirds only guess what it might be all about.
It's a surf nightmare, like sitting on your board waiting for the waves that just aren't coming, drifting off, and glancing over your shoulder just in time to see a ten foot face about to pummel you but you can't move...

 Deep Discount CD   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Simon And The Bar Sinisters: Simon Chardiet (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars); Blackie (bass); Eric Parker (drums).
Guitarist/vocalist Simon Chardiet often sings in a faux Southern drawl, and is joined by a cast who share his love for psychobilly freakouts: guitarist/producer Eric Ambel, drummer Eric Parker, and organist Andy York.
Other highlights include the devastating strut of the title track, the '60s-sounding instrumental "Surf the Wild Gowanus," and the tough bar rocker "Woodpecker Rock." While Chardiet would continue to rock n' stroll with the Bar Sinisters, he'd also release albums as a solo artist, such as 1997's BUG BITE DADDY.

 Simon Chardiet Home
New Bar Sinisters CD "Music For all occasions" is the latest addition to the Simon and the Bar Sinisters Discography!
Simon Chardiet is the kind of guitarist that bar-band fans dream of finding: a one-man twang meltdown who knows where surf meets blues, rockabilly meets klezmer, country meets punk.
His songs are wryly frustrated; his guitar solos assuage his troubles with the grand sweep of American music.

Simon was a little guy with a shaved head and a maniacal smile.
He put out two albums (one with the Bar Sinisters; one solo), but neither is particularly interesting.
Like Simon, his albums, whether solo or with the Flat Duo Jets, have never captured that spirit.

 hello from new member - Rockabilly - tribe.net
The lead singer is no longer in the world of the living, but they did release a couple of records that i highly recommend.
Another band I fondly remember was Simon and the Bar Sinisters.
Simon was a great singer and guitar player, and the bass player could do rockabilly style very convincingly on his Danelectro bass (usually I'm a stand-up bass purist).

 Concert Joe Articles
In 1989 he spent over 15 grand on concerts, a sizable sum for a "mostly unemployed construction worker." It's only four days into 1992, and, by the end of the night, his tally for this year will be somewhere around 12.
He has spent more than half his life running around clubs, bars, theaters, and arenas, catching some 6,000 shows and documenting his presence at each one.
The shaven-headed singer of Simon and the Bar Sinisters, who does bear an uncanny resemblance to Underdog's nemesis, pulls out of "Born Too Loose" and into a country ditty, then a touch of rockabilly, a little hardcore, and, finally, closing the show, a snatch of spy movie music.

 TrouserPress.com :: Eric Ambel
Since leaving the Del-Lords in 1990, New York singer/guitarist Eric "Roscoe" Ambel has made a name for himself as a producer specializing in unpretentious rock with a distinct country edge.
Working out of Coyote Studios hard by Brooklyn's Gowanus Canal, Ambel has manned the board (and sometimes played guitar) for records by such rootsy acts as the Bottle Rockets, Blue Mountain, Blood Oranges, Simon and the Bar Sinisters, Go to Blazes, Mojo Nixon and Nils Lofgren.
Recorded while Ambel was still a Del-Lord, Roscoe's Gang is a casual good-time rock'n'roll session with the Skeletons, Peter Holsapple and other likeminded pals.

Rocking a bit more softly and harmonizing at every possible turn, 5CB has settled into an appealing folk-rock groove, offering up wry social commentary and some empathic glimpses into the mindset of those on the fringes.
Ditto for Simon Chardiet's Bug Bite Daddy (Upstart), the hiccuping chapter two in the New York guitar gunner's bid to rip his way into the lives of the unsuspecting general public and forever alter their ability to stomach Blues Traveler, Hootie and the Dave Matthews Band.
Bug Bite Daddy is a 24-track mixed bag of sinister surf instrumentals ("Run Chicken Run," "Surf Octopus"), hardcore rants ("What's New Pussycat," "Left-Wing Fascist" and the searing anti-Deadhead, "I'd Be Grateful") and jumped-up rockabilly blasts.

All the essentials are here, including the tongue-wagging "Hangin' Out (For Your Love)," a swaggering version of "Thinkin' With the Wrong Head" and a cackling slap-back take of the obscure rockabilly gem, "Woodpecker Rock," that's so perfectly produced by Eric "Roscoe" Ambel you'll swear you hear Simon deep-throating the Coyote Studio mike at song's end.
Or is that the sound of the waves crashing on the tires lining the south Brooklyn shores in "Surf the Wild Gowanus?"
If only someone had the guts to burn down all the Denim and Diamonds in the world and replace them with dirty, low-ceilinged bars with loud, loud jukeboxes, then Watson would stand a fighting chance of ridding his body of this nasty Music City dermatological disorder.
