Conner Simmons is a composer, and double bassist from San Antonio, Texas. Their musical experience ranges from experimental performance art, composition for film, orchestral performances alongside the San Antonio Symphony, and a collaborative installation exhibited in Bologna, Italy. Conner is interested in the capacity of music to create a sense of physical and metaphorical place, and occasionally uses visual media to augment the auditory spaces they create. Their often collaborative and interdisciplinary approach to music and art illuminates the divide and overlap between the personal, ephemeral, and universal.
