JAS Café: Cory Henry & The Funk Apostles

Thu, 12/27/2018 - 03:00 PM - Fri, 12/28/2018 - 03:00 PM

On the debut album with The Funk Apostles, 'Art of Love,' organ virtuoso Cory Henry demonstrates that's he more up for the challenge, moving from sideman to frontman with seemingly effortless grace and cool. Praised by AllMusic as "one of the finest Hammond B-3 organ players of his generation," Henry also proves himself to be a remarkable singer and songwriter here, one of the extraordinary depth and vision. He and the band whip up an intoxicating blend of blues, soul, R&B, Afrobeat, gospel, and jazz on the record, blurring genres and upending expectations at every turn.
