Bio:
Simon Mogul is a 25-year-old Tenor Saxophonist originally from Miami (FL), currently residing in New York City. Simon's music fuses a respect and understanding of jazz's past (channeling saxophonists such as the great John Coltrane and Sonny Rollins) with modern genres, such as Hip Hop and R&B. Simon completed his first international tour in the Summer of 2022, touring South Africa, and playing sets of almost all original music. The tour was well received and was covered by South African national media. Simon's quintet was recently selected as finalists for internationally renowned competitions at the Bucharest Jazz Festival and the 7VJC Festival, for the summer of 2023. In his short time in New York City, Simon has already performed with NYC jazz luminaries such as Curtis Lundy, Matt Wilson, Arturo O'Farrill, Phillip Harper, Charu Suri, Pete Rodriguez, Stacy Dillard, Josh Evans, Mimi Jones, and more at venues such as Small's Jazz Club, Birdland, The Django, Minton's Playhouse, Nublu, and Cafe Bohemia.
