Haralds Sīmanis (12 June 1951 – 1 December 2022) was a Latvian singer and composer.
[2] He did not receive a musical education but learned to play guitar and organ.
In the 1970s, he began collaborating with poet Arvīds Ulme [lv], whose poems he used for many of his songs, such as the organ pieces Mīlestība nekad nebeidzas, Likteņa lietavas, and Par zāli, sāli un Tevi.
Sīmanis gained notoriety in 1980 when he performed the ballad Ezers at that year's Mikrofona aptauja.
After Latvia's independence, Sīmanis primarily composed music for organ on his own, but collaborated with Ieva Akuratere [lv], Ilze Grunte, Dr. Peacock, and others in his later years.
