He played bass and provided occasional backing vocals for the English band The Verve. Personal lifeJones attended Rudston Road primary school in Childwall, Liverpool and moved to Wigan when he was 13 years old. He is married to Myra and has two sons - Jude and Jonah Jones. The VerveAway from the musical side of The Verve, Jones is the only other band member other than the band's main mouthpiece, lead singer Richard Ashcroft, who tends to speak publicly and in interviews. Most notably, he, along with Ashcroft, made a speech at the 2007 Q Awards as they won a classic album award for their 1997 album Urban Hymns. He thanked the band member's wives and children and also thanked former Verve guitarist Simon Tong, who was not included in the newly reformed Verve line up. He also did an interview on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show after the band's 2007 reformation, and he also appeared alone and alongside Ashcroft in a handful of Verve documentaries and other miscellaneous interviews throughout the 1990s. When The Verve split in 1999 due to in-band tensions, many believed they were down to tensions between singer Richard Ashcroft and lead guitarist Nick McCabe.[2] While this is true, there were in fact problems, described as 'serious' by Ashcroft in later interviews, between Ashcroft and Jones also. In June 2007, he rejoined The Verve in their reunion but by 2009 they had disbanded again.{{Citation needed|date=March 2013}} Other musical projectsAfter the breakup of The Verve in 1999, Jones later played bass and wrote songs for the short lived band The Shining, who former Verve band mate Simon Tong also played with. They would release just one album in 2002 called True Skies.[3] In 2003, Jones was the recording bassist for Howie Day on Day's second album, Stop All The World Now, on Epic Records.[4] Since 2004, Jones has been an official member of the backing band for Cathy Davey. In November 2005, he performed with the Gorillaz live band playing guitar at the Manchester Opera House, as part of the Manchester International Festival, again alongside fellow Verve member Simon Tong.[5] In 2015 Simon featured on the 'out of the hive' ep by scottish band, boletes.[6] References1. ^ {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120116190957/http://www.itb.co.uk/artist.aspx?artistId=915 |date=16 January 2012 }} {{The Verve}}{{Gorillaz}}{{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Jones, Simon}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.nme.com/news/the-verve/383 |title=The Verve - Is This The End? | News |publisher=Nme.Com |date=15 June 1998 |accessdate=2013-03-19}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://menmedia.co.uk/manchestereveningnews/p/5183 |title=Shining through - ex-Verve star Simon Jones - Manchester Evening News |publisher=Menmedia.co.uk |date=17 February 2007 |accessdate=2013-03-19}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/howie-day-new-studio-album-produced-by-youth-the-verve-crowded-house-dido-stop-all-the-world-now-out-october-7-70943802.html |title=Howie Day New Studio Album Produced by Youth (The Verve, Crowded House,... - re> NEW YORK, 14 Aug. /PRNewswire/ |publisher=Prnewswire.com |date= |accessdate=2013-03-19}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://menmedia.co.uk/manchestereveningnews/news/s/180/180298_celebs_toast_gorillaz_success.html |title=Celebs toast Gorillaz success - Manchester Evening News |publisher=Menmedia.co.uk |date=2 November 2005 |accessdate=2013-03-19}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/out-hive-feat.-simon-jones/id1040794700 |title=Itunes |date=1 October 2015 |accessdate=2017-06-30}} 7 : 1972 births|Living people|English rock bass guitarists|Male bass guitarists|The Verve members|Musicians from Liverpool|21st-century bass guitarists |
