Originally from Créteil, French pianist Simon Denizart arrived in Montreal in 2011 and wasted no time in getting his music heard.

Initially working with the Canadian label The 270 Sessions, he produced three albums, Between Two Worlds (2015), Beautiful People (2016) and Darkside (2017). This productive period earned him the Radio-Canada Revelation award in 2016 and two ADISQ nominations in 2017 and 2018.

 Released in 2021 on the Laborie Jazz label, his fourth album NOMAD offers a dynamic and original encounter between the piano and the calabash. It was again nominated for an ADISQ award in the Album of the Year Jazz category that same year.

Critically acclaimed, "Croyez-nous c'est un sacré talent" (Radio-Canada), "Simon Denizart, retenez bien son nom!" (FIP - Jane Villenet), he performs all over the world (France, Canada, Czech Republic, Cuba, etc.) and leaves no one indifferent.

"Simon Denizart is a pianist in a class of his own, with obvious jazz influences, but also rock, world music and even neo-classical music" (Jérôme Davieau, sors-tu.ca). "Cultivating a fluid, dynamic sound that brings him very close to the late Swedish pianist Esbjörn Svensson" (Christophe Rodriguez, sortiesjazznights.ca), he plays sensitive, energizing music, sprinkled with subtle, accessible melodies.

In 2023 he began a new collaboration with the prestigious Canadian label Justin Time Records, which produced his forthcoming fifth album: Piece of Mind.
