SIMON MOGUL
ABOUT SIMON MOGUL
Simon Mogul is a 26-year-old Tenor Saxophonist originally from Miami (FL), currently based in New York City.Simon's artistic vision fuses a deep respect for jazz’s rich history—channeling legends like John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins—with contemporary sounds and ideas, creating a vibe that honors the lineage while sounding fresh and forward-thinking. Simon has performed with jazz luminaries such as Curtis Lundy, Bobby Watson, Jeremy Pelt, Warren Wolf, Matt Wilson, Arturo O'Farrill, and Phillip Harper at prominent venues across the country. Simon released his debut record in February 2026, entitled Simon Says (produced by Curtis Lundy), which featured eight of his original compositions. Simon toured across the country in support of the release thanks to a grant from South Arts's Jazz Road Tours program, bringing his band to perform his original music in Miami, Tallahassee, Atlanta, Nashville, and Baltimore, culmunating with an album release show at the world-renowned Smalls Jazz Club.
​
As a music educator, Simon has taught students of all ages and backgrounds, in a wide variety of educational settings. Simon has worked as an Ensemble Coach within the City College of New York's Jazz Studies program, and currently serves as a saxophone mentor to formerly incarcerated individuals through the Music on the Inside organization.
