Cory Henry & The Funk Apostles

He is the child prodigy who made his debut at the legendary Apollo Theater at the age of six. We are proud to present one of jazz's new superstars!

Door opens: 23:59 Single ticket price: NOK 450

He is considered the mastermind of the popular music collective Snarky Puppy, but Cory Henry has also played with artists such as P. Diddy, Bruce Springsteen, The Roots and Yolanda Adams, to name a few. And it was actually life on tour that made his latest project The Funk Apostles come into being in the first place.
 
The project consists of musicians that Henry has met on tour over the years, specifically five of the world's most credible musicians, handpicked to bring this project to life.
 
Cory Henry started his career in the church surrounded by notes from the church organ and gospel singing. With musical roots in jazz, gospel and soul, he has collected three Grammy Awards. The choice of the Hammond B3 as the main instrument triggers many strong emotions. Just the name of the legendary organ can make music lovers squirm with joy.
 

Cory Henry is an outstanding artist who really knows how to run a band! Together with The Funk Apostles, they mix the best of funk, soul and jazz and create their own, rich, rich and unique soundscape.
