Ben Vince is a composer and performer from Nottingham, known for his live improvised saxophone explorations and inventive techniques in creating new rhythms, textures and moods. Through improvisation, sonic manipulation, reprocessing and looping, his spontaneous yet intuitive approach and collaborative nature surpasses the seeming limitations of his primary instrument. He is a prominent player among a new breed of experimental artists with focus on his immersive solo show, as well as having performed with improv ritual EP/64, Charles Hayward, Coby Sey, Valentina Magaletti and part of experimental post-punk band, Housewives. Vince has also notable studio collaborations with electronic producer Joy Orbison, Mica Levi, and many others spread across the experimental sphere including Sugai Ken, Cucina Povera, Alpha Maid and Gigi Masin.
