Cory Henry/ ‘Best of Me’

Internationally renowned keyboard master, soul singer, composer, and producer Cory Henry will release his new solo album, Best of Me, on September 17th. Produced, arranged, performed and co-written by Henry, the 11-track album, largely instrumental, features the prodigious musician on vocals, Hammond B3 organ, Moog and Harpejji—a rare electric stringed instrument. With a sound that Cory has christened “future soul”—a groove-heavy fusion of funk, blues, gospel, jazz and R&B—Best of Me calls upon influences including Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, Donny Hathaway, P-Funk, and James Brown. The album’s title references Henry’s appreciation for those who came before him, creators of the 70s soul that he cites as “the greatest era of music.”
