Simon Bräumer was born in 1997 and raised in a musical family in the Odenwald region of Germany. At six years old, he started playing drums. Jazz played an important role for him from early on. He played his first jazz gigs at 12, shortly after which he began to participate in projects of the Hessen State Youth Jazz Orchestra, which led him to play tours in Latvia, Lithuania, Canada, and China, as well as being on stage with Grammy Award-winning singer Dee Dee Bridgewater. Simon Bräumer studies jazz at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln with Michael Küttner and Jonas Burgwinkel, and at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama in London with James Maddren and Tom Farmer. He is a sideman in different jazz combos and the drummer of Pascal Klewer's Big Band.
