Simon Sieger

Simon Sieger is a multi-instrumentalist, arranger and composer. His field of activity ranges from barrelhouse boogie to Sun Ra reinterpretations to hard-hitting sweet noise. In his own words, “Music has no boundaries; anything can go anywhere, with the right attitude. That’s the way the world should be.” He has been heard playing stride piano at noise concerts and Turkish maqam in a blues band. Often called a “hunter-gatherer” by his peers, he has recently played with the Art Ensemble of Chicago, the Famoudou Don Moye Odyssey and Legacy Quintet.
