Grammy nominated saxophonist Ben Wendel is undoubtedly a rising star in the jazz, and music, firmament.

Highlights include tours, performances and/or recordings with artists such as Tigran Hamasyan, Antonio Sanchez, Gerald Clayton, Eric Harland, Taylor Eigsti, Linda May Han Oh, Moonchild, Louis Cole, Daedelus, Snoop Dogg and the artist formerly known as Prince. Ben is a founding member of the Grammy nominated group Kneebody.

His first album under his own name for Edition Records, ‘High Heart’ (2020) refers to the human desire to connect and express through new mediums at the risk of feeling isolated and cut off.
