I just discovered these guys recently - and instantly became a big fan. Henri is one of the most interesting and promising new guitarists on the scene in many years.
100 yeah me too. not sure how this escaped my radar. this dude is a really cool dude on the exterior with a heavy sounding beast underneath a nice gent skin. very hip. style out of this world. great to see, hear & vibe on 👏 sure hope I get to see sc live 🙏 #blownaway
What a great rundown. Never heard of him or SC. Always up for some new material with real heart. I can dig it. This Cash kid's charming quirkiness and his somewhat punkish ethos and unique playing style tells me he's gonna be around for awhile and I see nothing but success and positive things down the road for him. I wish him all the best. Rock On Henri!
I like that he name drops R.L. and Billy Zoom. His band definitely has that youthful R&R energy that's needed. Excited to hear more from them and their sound to progress.
When I first listened to three Starcrawler vids, I was absolutely blown away...hark, a unique sounding band with a great singer. But that guitarist sealed the deal...the dude can play like no other. I know that's a bold statement, I'll define that Mr. Cash can integrate several styles without one saying I've heard that before. He is someone that guitar players will follow for years to come. Peace...
I've really enjoyed Starcrawler, but I did not expect the depth from this kid. He knows what he likes and makes it work. Freakin' rocks that Digitech Drop pedal!
Goddam Chris it is SO good to see a live Rig Rundown. I'm so glad to see the US getting back to normal. Now if only our leaders in Canada could get their shit together...
Once again, a great guitarist played drums at a young age. This is the key to developing an acute sense of tempo. Play the drums first. An entire world of instruments opens.
Great video. Henri rocks - as does Starcrawler - and it’s great hearing him talk about his gear and how he uses it to get his unique sound (the three string in particular). I was in L.A. recently and was fortunate to take in a show at McCabe’s in Santa Monica, at which Henri, his brother Bill and his Dad (and Carla Olson - The Textones) joined the great Peter Case on stage to play some Nerves and Plimsouls songs. It was a real treat to see such a great display of inter-generational musical talent and collaboration.
The treble booster he is talking about is from a Gretsch 7632 Corvette Deluxe from 1976, it came in two varieties, either a treble boost or a fuzz and treble boost. Wonderful weird guitars. Fret nibs and a 0 fret, 4-2 tuners and a stunning maple neck with volute. You can see todays reissues of the corvette, they dont do them justice.
Just saw these guys last night without ever having heard of them, they were fucking amazing! This guy is a pretty monstrous player, and he and their singer have ridiculously immaculate stage presence. I'm not sure if I was more impressed by how well they performed or how incredible of a job Henri's guitar tech was doing.
👿🔱😈.. Awesome interview.. Love StarCrawler.. Arrow looks so diff that got my attention then I watched Henri play guitar and I loved his energy.. So many guitar players just stand there ( the clapton stance ) and Henri really gets into it... Tell him to check out a Tokai Hummingbird.. Super cool old japanese guitar that Earth tungue play... 🤘
@@SmartStr33t that depends on the style of music you play. Dearmond pickups are great for twang, surf and rockabilly of course. I play cowpunk, hickabilly style so they are perfect for me. The G512? Series had them. They are getting harder to find but they pop up every now and again.
I have one of those old Fender heads. It's beat to hell and the corners are rusted from a long succession of drunken dive and club gigs. Stored it for years and it died. Had a $75 recap job done on it and it just sprang to life. Same groove tubes in it from the 80's. Sounds better now than I remember it. Does the J. Thunders thing. These 60's/70's era Fenders are industructible and techs love the simplicity when working on them and they rock. I put mine through hell, dimed it for every gig and practice and it's still blazing. Couldn't recommend a better starter amp for guitarists who are just starting to gig.
What's wrong with being rich and not having jobs. I'm not rich and have been working since I was 16, my overall impression is that it sucks lol. Not their fault for being fortunate enough to have family already connected to the music biz.
Guitarists like Henri don't come along every day. I'll definitely be following his musical career as long as he has one (which I hope is an extremely long time). He has a natural talent as a showman that really impresses me.
Chambered body with a treble boost...Very close to Brian Mays set up just with no Vox amp...Been listening to Starcrawler since there first album a few years back.👍Henri is a killer player and Arrow is a great singer and performer.🤘
Jacky bam bam of 93.3 WMMR turned me onto this dude, I watched Starcrawlers material on RUclips, This guy has star material written all over him, Im sure loyalty to Starcrawler is paramount to him at the moment, But if Starcrawler doesn't make it big, I guarantee you this guy is absorbed into an established band thats already made it, I had a dream the night I first watched a bunch of their material that he was the replacement for Mick Mars in Motley Crue !
pedal steel will sound GREAT on pennies! hope there is alive release or something with that version, c'mon throw the dog a bone already... lol perhaps one day I witness it for myself?
This dude kinda rocks. He should check out the band Ammonia. Mid 90’s grunge, had the single “drugs”… “and money, but there’s nothing… I’m gonna do about it”
first thing I noticed when I heard this band pennies I think it was his guitar really stood out for me.. love itits fat as fugg and he seriously exploits it.. I love huis guitar work so many guys today are like oh wow man I just played 2,356 notes in 3 bars man if I finger tapped I could fit 132 more notes in there man which ios no big deal really but all those notes and they never have much to say and most feel like a devils thorn in the shoe.. lol sorry if you're that guy keep on pluck'n one day you'll win the race and will be able to focus on the music.. lol
If this guy played fender guitars he would literally have the perfect setup. And I really wish fender would release more guitar heads and cabinets again.

This kid is living his dream. So awesome!

absolutely!
I have to agree someone needs to promote them more I found out about them here also.
Yep, same. Nice guy and the band’s music is a breath of fresh air.

They are very cool very high skills, cool country surfer real fuzz sound
Damn wtf I just discovered this group. This kid is an “old soul.” Love it!
You can't help but love this guy... so relatable, and yet so much spark
Starcrawler is the best new and true rock band I’ve heard in a longggg time
What a great rundown. Never heard of him or SC. Always up for some new material with real heart. I can dig it. This Cash kid's charming quirkiness and his somewhat punkish ethos and unique playing style tells me he's gonna be around for awhile and I see nothing but success and positive things down the road for him.

Sixty-five year old Starcrawler fan here, Henri's guitar playing is a big reason why.
So funny- I am 62 and stumbled upon Starcrawler a month ago- my favorite band find for 2024!
Great tone and playing from everyone in the band :)
I like that he name drops R.L. and Billy Zoom. His band definitely has that youthful R&R energy that's needed. Excited to hear more from them and their sound to progress.
If you haven't seen Starcrawler live i urge you to make a big effort. They are awesome! Top 5 of the best bands I have ever seen.
Henri is incredible!!! Wise beyond his years! There's hope for Guitar R&R!!!!!
Loving this kid, so enthusiastic about guitars and music.
Love this kid. He's got an old soul. Truly understands the colors of sound.
One of the best Rig Rundowns I’ve seen!
Cool dude. Great influences! Continued success for Starcrawler.
Saw him yesterday in Berlin. He is a really good performer and knows his sound! Super gig!
👍
My favorite new band find for 2024
2008 is when "It Might Get Loud" came out. My freshman year of High School. I'm only 28. How are you making me feel so old already?
Reality hurts. Class of 2012 here
Was in college. My musical engineering teacher took half a day of class to pick apart the guitar building scene. God damn...
All the best Henri, from Canada!
Great rundown. Henri is so fun to watch and listen play. The tones are insane! Can't wait until Strarcrawler gets out live again.
When I first listened to three Starcrawler vids, I was absolutely blown away...hark, a unique sounding band with a great singer. But that guitarist sealed the deal...the dude can play like no other. I know that's a bold statement, I'll define that Mr. Cash can integrate several styles without one saying I've heard that before. He is someone that guitar players will follow for years to come.

Best episode in months! Loved it
Now I know where to go to get a cool looking new guitar strap. Thanks Henri.
Henri, you are amazing. Rock On!!!
Love this dude, he has the MC5 energy!!!
Goddam Chris it is SO good to see a live Rig Rundown. I'm so glad to see the US getting back to normal. Now if only our leaders in Canada could get their shit together...
Love these kids love their sound and where they draw influences 👍
Can't wait for Henri to do a solo record
Yes - he needs his own band, imho.
i'm old, but love this kid. refreshing.
Loved this episode.

This band kicks major ass!
Gotta love rig rundowns.
one of the few jammin guitarists out there.
This fella looks so genuine, down to earth and approachable, cool kid, cool rare guitars too

That tone is insane. I’m a big Gretsch fan. I like dearmond pickups though. Thanks for this
I just bought a Gretsch, do you recommend changing pick-ups?
@@SmartStr33t that depends on the style of music you play. Dearmond pickups are great for twang, surf and rockabilly of course. I play cowpunk, hickabilly style so they are perfect for me. The G512? Series had them. They are getting harder to find but they pop up every now and again.
501st like! This young man is the most original player I have heard for quite a while.
So cool to see someone interested in the sound of real instruments instead of plugging into a amp modeler.
Hey Henri keep on living the dream.
Nice. Henri seems like a cool dude!
Incredibly tasteful guitarist
Love the band, love this guy.
Love learning about new bands via Rig Rundown!
Marty Stuart needs an episode btw.
We're not worthy! (We'd love to feature Marty!)
never heard of his band so i checked out the song i love LA. pretty fun stuff and he loves Billy ZOOM!
I have one of those old Fender heads. It's beat to hell and the corners are rusted from a long succession of drunken dive and club gigs. Stored it for years and it died. Had a $75 recap job done on it and it just sprang to life.

Really, really enjoyed this... He's so real its addictive...
@Joey Maxon yeah i used to be a big fan but i realised the band were a bunch of rich LA kids that never had jobs
What's wrong with being rich and not having jobs. I'm not rich and have been working since I was 16, my overall impression is that it sucks lol. Not their fault for being fortunate enough to have family already connected to the music biz.
This guy has an awkward charm, like Scott Pilgrim but on guitar
Henri should record a solo record for sure. Country rock
Guitarists like Henri don't come along every day. I'll definitely be following his musical career as long as he has one (which I hope is an extremely long time). He has a natural talent as a showman that really impresses me.
Being able to play this guys three string at Aragon Ballroom is fucking surreal I will never have more fun in my life.
Love that B bender sound!
Just come across you. Love it 👍
how do you fault a guy who knows what he likes and pursues it. great RR Mr. Cash.
this young man . . .
“O is are soundman” all questions answered there
really good!!
Man I Dig the 3 string guitar and the 3 amps at a time! This kid is the wildest some kind mad genius!
Damn. I didn't know starcrawler had money like that.
Chambered body with a treble boost...Very close to Brian Mays set up just with no Vox amp...Been listening to Starcrawler since there first album a few years back.👍Henri is a killer player and Arrow is a great singer and performer.🤘
Love Starcrawler.
Super cool!
Randy Parsons was my guitar guy a few years back. Sweetheart of a guy
He likes Neil Young and the B52s!
Jacky bam bam of 93.3 WMMR turned me onto this dude, I watched Starcrawlers material on RUclips, This guy has star material written all over him, Im sure loyalty to Starcrawler is paramount to him at the moment, But if Starcrawler doesn't make it big, I guarantee you this guy is absorbed into an established band thats already made it, I had a dream the night I first watched a bunch of their material that he was the replacement for Mick Mars in Motley Crue !
This guy used to call the Stern show back in the day. Funny voice...
Shit my cats run for the hills when I plug in
I’ll find them hiding in the cabinets
Henri's aunt Jody Head is a badass guitar strap designer/maker. They're nice straps.
Gram Parsons/ /Flying Burrito bros. The Byrds/ b bender. Marty Stuart...geeking out
32:50 love it, R.I.P Otis
It All comes back to Rock and Roll. It is usually one band that saves Rock nRoll..Hendrix VanHalen. GnR Nirvana….thanks Starcrawler
Real Rock and roll band!.... i thought it was a thing of the past?..... until i saw Starcrawler.
Never heard of them before this...
🇺🇲Excellent & Unique⭐Starcrawler⭐ is the fresh Sound that rOCkn rOLL nEedEd🌎
i love HC ...he is super fun
Yeah like how Premier Guitar checks out alot of new guitarist for sure.
Ah nice shout out to John Wescott! :) He's a great tech
pedal steel will sound GREAT on pennies! hope there is alive release or something with that version, c'mon throw the dog a bone already... lol perhaps one day I witness it for myself?
This dude kinda rocks. He should check out the band Ammonia. Mid 90’s grunge, had the single “drugs”… “and money, but there’s nothing… I’m gonna do about it”
It’s like Jack White had a baby with McLovin...
LOL, he's a bit ham fisted for sure.
first thing I noticed when I heard this band pennies I think it was his guitar really stood out for me.. love itits fat as fugg and he seriously exploits it..
I love huis guitar work so many guys today are like oh wow man I just played 2,356 notes in 3 bars man if I finger tapped I could fit 132 more notes in there man which ios no big deal really but all those notes and they never have much to say and most feel like a devils thorn in the shoe.. lol sorry if you're that guy keep on pluck'n one day you'll win the race and will be able to focus on the music.. lol
Man he’s an old soul
This guy is really funny
Wow what a collection of guitfiddles as Albert King would say
this dude rocks , cool rr
Is he safe in that space?
Bad ass
'Skynyrd Bends'
Anyone got any idea what combination of pedals he uses for the verses of "good time girl"? I'm guessing the shaker is involved.
It felt like a dream hearing him live.
Multiple AMPS
I want tim Franco starcrawlers bassist rig rundown because in gigs Hes bass sound is best!!!
If this guy played fender guitars he would literally have the perfect setup. And I really wish fender would release more guitar heads and cabinets again.
He played 3 different teles and said that he’s most comfortable on telecasters.
Yea im bass player but it would be awesome!
What kind of Fender amps are those 2 heads? A Showman on top of a Tone Master?
🔥
How the hell did his tele fret board get looking like that?
Ask Mike Campbell. You will find your answer there.
