Vince Weber (born May 27, 1953, Hamburg) is a German blues and boogie-woogie pianist.
Weber started his first piano lessons, when he was aged ten in 1963. His sister introduced him to the blues by giving him records of Lightnin' Hopkins, Champion Jack Dupree, Taj Mahal and many others. At the age of sixteen he played in bars in the harbour of his hometown Hamburg, where he met Hans-Georg Möller, another pianist, who introduced him to boogie-woogie piano stylings. There he also met the comedian Otto Waalkes, who booked him as opener for his tour. In 1975 he released his first album, The Boogie Man" on Otto Waalkes Rüssel Records, which was awarded 'Deutscher Schallplattenpreis 1976'. This album was partly recorded in 'The Fabrik', where he has had a regular gig once a month since 1976. In 1978 he traveled to the United States for the first time. In 1980 he became disc jockey at the local NDR radio station, where he hosted a weekly blues broadcast.
He has played with Big Joe Williams, Abi Wallenstein, Henry Heggen, Axel Zwingenberger, Jay McShann, James Booker, Chuck Berry and Champion Jack Dupree at music festivals and in clubs all over Germany.
