For the last few years, it has been hard to separate Henry’s music from the American landscape. Moving from the UK to California at 21, Henry played his first shows in the small clubs and bars of Los Angeles and San Francisco. There he was introduced to the music of Bon Iver and The War On Drugs who helped shape his early writing and songs that would later appear on his debut album Alive In America.
Since the release of Alive In America in 2022, Henry has grown a loyal following in London where he now lives. His music has been championed by the likes of Wonderland, Americana UK, Songwriting Magazine, Absolute Radio, BBC Introducing and Mahogany. He was a headliner at the 2024 Great Escape Festival and performed on The Acoustic Stage at this year’s Glastonbury.
His new singles Say Something Mean and This Is The Place are the first from a new album co-produced with Blaine Harrison from Mystery Jets. They mark a departure from the stark and sparse arrangements of Alive In America and introduce a more transatlantic and band-driven sound with Henry joined by Harrison on keys, Brian Love on guitar, Tom Holder on bass and Toby Evangelou on drums.
