In Loving Memory of Jason Simpson
Jason Simpson Death, Obituary: With heavy hearts, we remember Jason Simpson, a cherished member of the La Honda Records family and a friend whose presence left a lasting mark on everyone who knew him. His passing is a deep loss, not only to those who worked alongside him, but to the wider community that shared in his music, his stories, and his spirit.
Jason was a proud Kentuckian, known for his bass guitar, his unmistakable style, and the easygoing presence he brought wherever he went. For more than a decade, he was part of the La Honda Records crew—more than just a collaborator, he was family. Through years of shared experiences, he became woven into the fabric of the community, building bonds that went far beyond music.
He was a musician through and through. Whether performing on small, intimate stages or in larger venues across the country, Jason had a way of grounding every performance with his rhythm. His talent was undeniable, but what truly set him apart was the passion and authenticity he brought to every note he played. Music wasn’t just something he did—it was who he was.
Offstage, Jason was a storyteller, a traveler, and a friend. He shared countless memories with those around him—long conversations, laughter on the road, and moments that turned into stories people will carry for years to come. His presence made experiences richer and friendships stronger.
His loss is deeply felt by all who had the privilege of knowing him. The community he helped build now mourns together, holding onto the memories and the music he leaves behind.
As we remember Jason Simpson, we do so with gratitude for the time shared and the legacy he created through both his art and his friendships.
Rest in peace, Jason. Your rhythm, your spirit, and your memory will live on.
