Eve Essex

Eve Essex has been played on NTS shows including NODE, with Life of Service first played on 15 March 2018.

Eve Essex is a multi-instrumentalist and composer based in Brooklyn, NY. Primarily a woodwind player, she employs a wide instrumentation including saxophones, flutes, and voice, supported by live processing, beds of synthesizers, drum machine, and other sounds. Operating between songwriting, composition, and instrumental improvisation, her work slides easily from structured electronic pop to open-ended melodic explorations to big-band arrangements. Her practice has spanned media and genres over time-- from installation and performance art to the prog, jazz, electronic, and electroacoustic ideas explored with ensembles The Fabulous Truth, Das Audit, Hesper, and HEVM. Crossing electronic production with dense acoustic orchestrations and emotive instrumentals, her recordings and performances are characterized by their ardent focus and spirited unpredictability.

Essex’s debut solo album, Here Appear, was jointly released by Soap Library (cassette) and Sky Walking (LP) in 2018. Her soundtrack for Andy Cahill's film Today, I Will Be The Bread was released by Soap Library in 2023. Other recordings have appeared on compilations by PAN, Sky Walking, Untergang Institut, and Wild Flesh Productions. Select solo performances include Artists Space, e-flux Bar Laika, Fridman Gallery, ISSUE Project Room, KAJE, Outpost Artists Resources, Safe Gallery, and Wendy's Subway in New York; Epison Spires, Brattleboro, VT; Rhizome, Washington D.C.; Meakusma Festival, Eupen, Belgium; the PUFFERS Festival, Providence, RI; and ACUD Macht Neu, Berlin, Germany. Her collaborations Das Audit and Essex Olivares have both presented commissioned performances for SculptureCenter, New York. As a featured instrumentalist she has contributed to works by The God In Hackney, Peter Gordon & Love of Life Orchestra, James K, Kevin Kenkel, Liturgy, Colin Self, UCC Harlo, and Peter Zummo, among others.
