For more than two decades Grammy-winning producer Joe Henry has worked with some of the most celebrated names in music, from Ornette Coleman and Elvis Costello to Ani DiFranco and Madonna. Most recently, Henry produced Allen Toussaint’s The Bright Mississippi and Ramblin’ Jack Elliott’s A Stranger Here, both of which found veteran artists exploring classic blues songs. With his work as a producer and a songwriter overlapping and informing one another, it is only natural that the blues found their way onto Henry’s Blood from Stars, and opened up a new part of Joe’s own songwriting – Joe at his most visceral, passionate and raw. Filled with murmuring samples lend the proceedings a dreamy, fragmented and cinematic feel, Blood from Stars is a collaboration, a dialog between an artist and the sum of his musical influences.
“Best Song writer you have ever heard of”
Independent on Sunday
“Joe Henry deserves recognitions as a bewitching American singer songwriter. His fascinating and disturbing songs create a darkly compelling world”
