About Cory Henry

One of the finest Hammond B-3 organ players of his generation, Cory Henry was a child prodigy, playing both piano and organ by the time he was two years old, making his debut at the legendary Apollo Theater when he was only six. He has worked in the studio and toured with countless artists. Falling closer to the Art Tatum and Oscar Peterson side of the Hammond organ jazz genre than he does to Jimmy Smith, with maybe a little Billy Preston tossed in there, Henry at his best combines the best of both gospel and jazz in his playing. His albums as a bandleader include the 2010 holiday set Christmas with You, 2011's Leave You Alone, and 2012's Gotcha Now Doc. ~ Steve Leggett
