Well, according to The JJ Henson Band its a little country, a dab of blues, a touch of rock and a whole lot of entertainment. Ignoring the traditional genre boundaries the band brings array of sounds to capture the respect of Nashville critics and the hearts of Texans.Like many musicians the band members grew up with a love of music. Peaking through the screen doors of the backyard porch, lead singer JJ Henson would sit for hours listening to his beloved grandfather play the mandolin with his blue grass band. Under the stern but loving guidance of Papa he learned to pick up a guitar and harmonize. Wearing the leather band in his memory JJ knows that no matter how big the stage, his favorite performances were on the back porch with his grandpa.Between his down-to-earth southern charm and amazing vocal range he has earned the respect of one fan at a time. Unafraid to rock out in his flip-flops and cowboy hat he has been hailed by some as the Kenny Chesney of Texas Country Music. Never forgetting his time served or the brothers he lost in the military JJ proudly dedicates every show in their honor. With the bands Billy Hoffman and Bubby Patterson he started his journey to a career in music. After placing 15th in a nationwide contest for upcoming artists JJ Henson was fully introduced into the Nashville scene. Capturing the ear of the legendary Earl Thomas Conley, JJ and Earl have not only become good friends but have become great fans of each others music. Drawing from a lifetime of experiences the band members each bring a unique aspect of life and transform it into music. The band credits some of their creative genius to their idols Earl Thomas Conley, Johnny Armstrong, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Robert Earl Keen, and Pat Green. With songs like That Kinda Guy and On a Night like This the band promises a high energy rockin' show that will get the crowd going. For all those slow dancing two-steppers the band has soulful ballads like Alone and Get It Right that are guaranteed to bring a smile to your face and a tear to your eye.Entering the music scene in full drive the band expects the release of their debut album On a Night Like This in 2008 to take their fans on a musical journey of the senses. So grab your beer, tequila, and flip-flops and be ready to get lost in the heartland of rock, the soul of blues, and twang of country.
