Freshly transplanted to San Francisco Bay Area from Shanghai, China and originally hailing from Virginia, Ben Misterka’s story is anything but ordinary. Spending 6 years based in Shanghai, he is well known as a top call session and touring guitarist, regularly performing at arenas, major festivals, and intimate clubs alike, with leading pop artists, internationally renowned touring acts, and his original project “Collectivity”. Now based back in the USA, he is quickly turning heads across California and beyond.
In 2017 Collectivity opened for Larry Graham at Shanghai Arena, performed at Ulanchabo World Music Festival in Mongolia, Headlined Candy Mountain Festival in Chengdu, and has recorded and produced a new video album, the first single to be released in March 2018.
Collectivity's original music is high energy, genre blending compositions, with a focus on exploration through collective improvisation. Upbeat grooves, soulful guitar work, and tight arrangements are things to expect at a Collectivity show, drawing on influences from jazz/funk, gospel, and psychedelic soul.
