A London musician whose songs feel like personal letters set to sparse, ambient textures.
If you want to hear Henson's voice at its most plain and direct, try 'Beekeeper' or 'Small Hands'. They're good places to start.
Henson's music has a way of pulling you into its own quiet world. Songs like 'Beekeeper' and 'You' from his early album 'Dear' established that intimate, direct voice. He's kept that feeling across albums while letting ambient sounds and cello players like Maxim Moston fill out the space around his lyrics.
He started writing songs as a teenager and put out his debut EP 'Stitchwork' in 2009. From there, albums like 'Birthdays' and 'Kindly Now' kept exploring that atmospheric folk sound, with tracks such as 'Maps' and 'The River' showing its range.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
