Scott Henderson is a musician who boasts a prestigious career in the most important international festivals.
It is precisely the live dimension that makes the performances of the Florida musician memorable.
In his artistic baggage there are over 20 albums recorded as leader and hundreds as sideman, but to increase his fame, in every corner of the globe, were above all the thousands of concerts he has held over the decades in over 60 different countries around the world. .
His guitar phrasing has invariably exalted and fascinated all kinds of audiences, however great the differences in generational affiliation of musical tastes and cultures were, always putting anyone with a passion for the vibrations of the electric guitar in agreement.
Among the many and excellent prerogatives of Henderson a fundamental role is played by the dazzling playing technique, but the fact that his guitar language is a lush and fascinating kaleidoscope of elements related to jazz, rock, funk, soul and soul is not secondary. to rhythm'n blues.
But Henderson is one of the forefathers in fusion music, a style that he contributed to codify and of which he became an authentic living legend, and he is also very linked to the universe of blues: that genre that has always been the permanent substratum of his music.
Henderson immediately had important experiences with Chick Corea, being part of his Elektrik Band, with violinist Jean-Luc Ponty and with Joe Zawinul, the legendary keyboardist of Weather Report.
In the eighties he founded Tribal Tech, a fusion group that has always been the banner of this special synthesis language and still in fervent activity, and later the Blues Band with which he traveled the length and breadth of the five continents.
In 2019 his latest recording test, "People mover", and then Covid, which has stopped many of his projects.
Now a great return that will not fail to give incredible emotions as in the previous concerts of his European tour which started after the end of the health emergency.
