Ben lamar gay

Ben LaMar Gay is a composer, multi-instrumentalist, and poet known for his "strikingly original" and "uncategorizable" music. Praised by Pitchfork and Jeff Parker, Gay blends folklore with eclectic sounds, collaborating with Chicago’s creative music scene including Theaster Gates and Nicole Mitchell.

Ben LaMar Gay is a composer and cornetist who moves sound, color, and space through folkloric filters to produce electro-acoustic collages. His unification of various styles is always in service of the narrative and never solely a display of technique.
