Hans Indigo Spencer’s composing career stretches over twenty years of supporting stories for theater directors, filmmakers, animators, and choreographers. He brings his full breadth of experience as a performing jazz musician, improviser, and educator to every project. Educated in classical composition at Oberlin Conservatory and earning a Master’s Degree in Jazz Studies from the New England Conservatory, Hans has built a reputation for being a world-class collaborator in any genre. Regularly performing at Improv Boston theater, he cut his teeth providing real-time live underscoring for New England’s best improvising actors. Through his years in Boston, he was also developing an audience for his twelve-piece band, the Indigo Invention Group, which incorporated imaginative stories into big-band jazz. All the while, he worked as a freelance saxophonist, playing with the top musicians in Boston. He currently devotes all of his creative energy to media composing now that he and his family have settled in the beautiful coastal city of Portland, Maine.
