Simon Jermyn

**Simon Jermyn** is an Irish bassist, composer, and improviser based in New York, known for his adventurous work at the intersection of jazz, experimental, and contemporary classical music. Hailing from Bray, County Wicklow, Jermyn has carved out a unique space in the avant-garde scene, collaborating with artists like guitarist Shane Parish, composer Caleb Burhans, and drummer/vibraphonist Chris Dingman. His projects often blur boundaries between composition and improvisation, weaving intricate textures with his trusty electric bass or double bass.

Recent releases like *Obsany* and *Roche Limit* showcase Jermyn’s knack for moody, genre-defying soundscapes, while live recordings such as *Live at Nublu* highlight his spontaneous, collaborative energy. Whether through solo ventures like *Trot A Mouse* or ensemble work (see the haunting *Hymni*), Jermyn’s music feels both cerebral and visceral—like a late-night conversation between math-rock precision and jazz’s loose, emotive heart.
