Biography

Growing up in Brooklyn, New York, Cory Henry’s childhood existed within the pages of sheet music. At the age of two, Cory began playing the organ and by high school, he was a permanent fixture in New York’s rising star venue the Village Underground. From there, his career in music catapulted him onto touring stages with legends like Roots, Kirk Franklin and Kenny Garrett and earned him a Grammy with jazz ensemble Snarky Puppy. In 2014, Cory released his first solo project First Steps, which reached the Top 5 of Billboard’s Jazz Albums chart while his 2016 gospel/jazz fusion live album The Revival was critically acclaimed and featured on NPR’s All Things Considered. Two years later, Cory Henry and The Funk Apostles released their first album Art of Love with praise from the New York Times and Billboard. Their following NPR Tiny Desk performance was a viral sensation and has generated over 1 million views to date. Now, Henry is back with upcoming project Something To Say. Born from a period of deep reflection, Cory translates his feelings into song and tackles subjects like love, breakups, social consciousness, injustices and the effects of being emotionally drained. Throughout each message on Something To Say, Cory ultimately hopes to unify listeners through a solid foundation of music that people can feel.
