About Bruce A. Henry:
Born in West Point, Mississippi, home of Howling Wolf, Bruce A. Henry was singing publicly by the age of 5 in his Baptist church on the West side of Chicago.

Influenced by Nina Simone, Al Jarreau and John Coltrane, to name a few, Bruce’s journey has resulted in an eclectic style of world influenced jazz vocals and composition. Bruce possesses a three and one-half octave range, a pure voice with versatility and depth that few can match.

Bruce’s music has taken him to 5 continents, garnering a large following in France and the Far East. He has been heard on a Worldwide Radio Live Concert on the B.B.C. as well as notable movie soundtracks; Henry has performed on such exotic and legendary stages as the Malate concert in Manila, the Klezmer Festival in Israel, Le Bilboquet in Paris, The WhitBread in London, the Coconut Grove in Miami, the Waldorf Astoria in New York City and the Grand Wailea in Maui.

Bruce has performed with numerous greats including, Bobby McFerrin, Doc Severinson, Dennis DiBlasio, Roberta Flack and the Sounds of Blackness.

Despite his frenetic performing and recording schedule, Bruce is a committed educator whose “Evolution of African American Music” workshop is an inspirational presentation indeed.

“He proves that he’s not only a singer with outstanding skills, but also a man of great musical imagination.”

"Artistry deserving much wider recognition. Bruce Henry is an international voice. Paris loves him, more people in the U.S. need to hear him. He is one of the articulate singers of the nineties, going into the next century.”
