Simmonds played on two albums: Islands (1987), and Heaven's Open (1991); one compilation: The Complete Mike Oldfield (1985), and toured with Mike 1983 -1993.
Having at one time been considered as a replacement for Mark Kelly in Marillion by the band's then-singer Fish, Simmonds was later chosen as the dominant co-writer on Fish's 1990 solo debut Vigil in a Wilderness of Mirrors.
He also co-wrote all tracks on the follow-up album Internal Exile and performed on the tours promoting these albums.

Simmonds has released three solo albums, The Shape of Rain (1996), The Seven Colours of Emptiness (2007) and Mickey Simmonds III (2021) which he describes as "a small homage to the late great Keith Emerson, sadly missed by me".
