Booking Live Music

Brennan Henry has been playing music live since their high school days in the 2000s.  With a lively musical portfolio that is eclectic & evolving, BH can get you dancing with some old-time, or perform some original ballads and instrumental work for an intimate set; from performing as an accordionist at barn dances and small theatrical performances, playing guitar and banjo for folk-rock bands at festivals and venues throughout the Midwest, setting the scene as a solo performer for dinners and art galleries, or performing with a string band for barn & contra-dances. Additionally, I was chosen to be an artist-in-resident at Neiwe En Meere in Amsterdam in the summer of 2016 and created their debut exhibition.

Please inquire about hosting:

  • Contra dance (with caller!)

  • Barn Dance (polkas, waltzes, and more without a caller)

  • Solo performances for dinners or weddings, gallery exhibitions or seed swaps, or whatever.

  • Eclectic rock band!
