Jeremy O’Neill is a composer and performing artist. His work draws on contemporary dance, voice, theatre and digital media with spontaneity and conceptual daring. He has written music for theatre, dance and chamber ensembles, integrating acoustic, electronic and conceptual approaches. He has worked concurrently as a dancer, performing internationally in the worlds of contemporary and commercial dance. His work frequently explores the boundaries between performative disciplines and the virtuosity of the human body.

From 2018 to 2022 he was a resident artist with contemporary opera company Ne.Sans. As a vocalist, he specializes in improvisation and extreme/extended techniques. His unique approach to composition and performance has lead him across disciplinary divides and he has performed and presented work at a wide range of festivals and platforms for dance and music, including the Darmstadt Ferienkurse, Seattle International Dance Festival, Sonic Boom, and Dancing on the Edge. He resides on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh first nations.
