In this electrifying episode of Rabbit Holes, host Kawika Hoke sits down with piano firestarter Henri Herbert, the UK-born, Nashville-based boogie and blues phenom whose fingers have earned him viral fame, sold-out tours, and praise from The New Yorker and BBC Music alike.
From viral performances at London’s St Pancras Station to headlining prestigious venues like the Blue Note, Henri brings the raw power of American blues into every room he touches.
In this intimate conversation, recorded ahead of his Maui performances, Henri reflects on live performance as spiritual release and why he’s still chasing the groove like it's the first time.
Come for the music. Stay for the soul.
