simmerr

simmerr is a seven-piece band including saxophone and trumpet, with high-energy danceable original songs and soulful vocals. Led by vocalist/keyboardist James Acre and guitarist/vocalist Jairo Campo, simmer infuses a bedrock of 80s soul with the indie-rock stylings of Mac DeMarco, a carefree yacht rock energy, and Latin jazz rhythms, to put an irresistible smile on the faces of audiences.

Last Fall, they released their debut single, “Get You Flying,” a relentlessly upbeat tune featuring Charles Ritz (of Zoe Sparks) on saxophone and Jeffrey Pinsker-Smith (of Couch) on trumpet, produced by Tucker Bickell (Couch, Zoe Sparks, Victor Franco).

They are a mainstay act in Manhattan, consistently packing club stages in the Lower East Side such as Arlene's Grocery, Rockwood Music Hall, and more. To kick off simmerr summer 2024, the band played live in Times Square on the TSQ Stage to a crowd of thousands in promotion of their second single "Parallel," slated for release on June 26th. While only a year old, simmerr is set for a year of growth in 2024, releasing more original music, creating innovative social media content, and expanding their audience.
