Biography

Gwilym Simcock (born 24 February 1981 in Bangor, Gwynedd) is a British pianist and composer working in both the jazz and classical music worlds, and often blurring the boundaries of the two.

He is a multi-award winner and recognised by critics worldwide to be one of the most gifted musicians of his generation. He was chosen as one of the 1000 Most Influential People in London by the Evening Standard. He was featured on the front cover of the August 2007 issue of the UK’s leading Jazz journal Jazzwise Magazine.
