Since graduating Leeds Conservatoire in 2013, tenor saxophonist Ben Powling has performed extensively as a sideman and leader across the UK, Europe and Asia honing a personal style based in a love of 60s jazz, West African musical styles and punk rock.

As well as performing, Ben has made a committed effort to building and nurturing the Leeds jazz scene. In 2018 he and venue owner Jack Simpson curated and released To Be Here Now, a vinyl and digital compilation of Leeds jazz released on their label HPBC Records. The LP was featured by Gilles Peterson on his BBC 6 Music UK Jazz special along with an interview with Ben.
