- Whitney Shay presents “A Tribute to Little Richard” featuring Henri Herbert.
With 100 million RUclips views, Henri Herbert is a piano playing phenomenon and one of the most sought after blues and boogie players in the world. The former stevedore and boxer performs a visceral, timeless show of original songs and covers featuring piano and vocals inspired by the great American blues pianists of the 20th century, not only keeping this unique form of American music alive and well, but also advancing it forward. Henri embodies this music presenting a palpable human element that connects with and energizes audiences.
“Very few pianists on the planet can put as much sheer emotion or adrenaline-fueled virtuosity into their performances.” -Matt Frost, The Blues Magazine
Born in France and raised in the UK, Henri was drawn at an early age to records made by the piano-pounding pioneers Jerry Lee Lewis and Albert Ammons. He cut his musical teeth performing all over Europe before joining the mighty Jim Jones Revue (JJR) in 2011. As a member of JJR, Henri completed several world tours at iconic festivals and shows such as Glastonbury and Rock En Seine festivals, along with a memorable performance on hit American TV show, Late Night with David Letterman. In 2014, JJR disbanded. Henri launched a solo career immediately thereafter regularly touring Europe and America and recording a series of boogie and blues piano albums including his standout “Boogie Woogie Piano” record. Henri has also maintained his affinity for hard-edged rock releasing albums and doing occasional tours with his rockabilly trio, “Henri Herbert and The Fury,” whose sound and energy are well captured on the trio’s pedal-to-the-metal concert album “Live at Gypsy Hotel.” In March 2019, Henri moved to Austin, Texas where he currently resides while maintaining dual citizenship in the UK and France.
Henri is a proven, solo draw with past tours across Europe, USA, Canada and Japan including selling out three consecutive shows at Rockwood Music Hall in New York. He also has a knack for catching the eyes and ears of media as highlighted by Henri’s live sessions for Marc Riley on BBC Radio 6 Music and Jazz FM, as well as exclamatory kudos from one journalist after another.
Music stars have jumped on the bandwagon too with Henri enjoying past performances with guitar hero Charlie Sexton and David Bowie/Iggy Pop super-drummer Hunt Sales, as well as recordings with Nas the rapper, Isabella Summers (Florence and The Machine) and others. Perhaps the biggest compliment Henri has received to date is receiving an invitation by the Jerry Lee Lewis family to visit the family home / museum in Mississippi to play Lee’s piano. The video of this performance garnered over 25,000 views within the first two hours of its release.
Henri is a Roland Pianos and Blackstar Amplification artist.
“Henri’s singing is as sensual as Elvis at his most moody, but it’s his demonic piano playing that grabs the attention.” -Ged Babey, Louder Than War
“Classy, considered songwriting.” -Henry Yates, Classic Rock Magazine
Fabulous!! Not only a terrific Boogie Woogie pianist but plays terrific Rock and Roll too. Love the voice and he has the looks too!!!
Can't help it! This music is just so joyous!
Гениальный пианист!
Great performance!
First heard Henri in a YT video where he was playing in a train station somewhere. Amazing.
Pretty sure that was the sequence featured in the Jim Carrey movie, _The Majestic._
Here is the link to the performance in the station:
