Jeremy Dumont was born in Brussels on June 26, 1987. He started playing the violin at the age of 5. For a while he was a member of the Choir at the ‘Maîtrise of the RTBF’ and started learning to play the piano at the age of 12 with concert pianist Karin Lechner. He finished secondary school in the section of classical piano at the Arthur Grumiaux Conservatory in Charleroi, complementing his education with a Jazz improvisation course taught by Thomas de Prins at the Jacques-Dalcrose Academy. This led to his decision to pursue Jazz. He studied for a year at the JazzStudio in Antwerp and participated in several clinics in Belgium and abroad while at the same time taking private classical piano classes with Geneviève Vandermeulen and jazz piano classes with Ivan Paduart and Eric Vermeulen. His encounter with the Greats of Belgian Jazz seduced him and he enrolled in the Royal Conservatory of Brussels to study with Eric Legnini. He graduated with distinction in his Masters course in 2013 whilst giving numerous concerts in various venues in Belgium, France and Luxemburg and aspires to perfect his education abroad.
During his musical journey he explored different styles, mostly derivatives of Jazz and founded several ensembles: The Jérémy Dumont Quartet, soon renamed The Unexpected 4, Jérémy Dumont Trio, Solid Steps Quintet (a tribute to the very first album by American saxophonist Joe Lovano, recorded in Belgium in 1987), Brussels Pop Masters (a collective of musicians whose repertoire was entirely based on ad lib compositions including jazz funk hip hop) which evolved into JD’s & X-Project to finish as Soul Triggers. He has also been involved in numerous projects as sideman.
He was awarded first prize for ‘Jeunes Talents’ at the ‘Dinant Jazz Nights’ 2010 (Belgium) with his quartet, first prize of ‘Jeunes Formations’ at the Festival of Comblain-la Tour 2012 (Belgium) with his Trio, he was a finalist in ‘Le Concours International de Piano Boris Vian’ in Ville-d’Avray (France) in November 2012 and finally Jérémy was nominated by ‘SABAM-Jeunesses Musicales Jazz Award 2013′.
