The Silence is Magic.

About Me

My name is Henrietta.I am an artist. I work with paints, words and sounds. I love SILENCE.I am six feet tall. I only mention this because there don't seem to be many tall female singers about. Why? Do people only want to listen to short women? Are tall women barred from the music industry?I live in London. Sometimes I do feel that I need to be somewhere else. Then I go off to find the sea, mainly around the south east coasts of England, and everything is alright again when I see the waters.I do a lot of things for free. I think that the best things in life are exactly that. Some people think the opposite, that nothing in life is free. Where do you stand?The past seven years have been unbelievable for me. The first four of those found me literally on my death bed. I couldn't even play the drums! Or do any of my fav things, talk less sing. But I could read!. And that is exactly what I did. I read a library and three quarters and didn't realise it at the time!Soon the answers began to turn up that made me get better. Even I was surprised when it happened. The last three years? I can only put it in the words of a band called HENRIETTA that I found on myspace: Good old Henrietta is dead, long live THE SILENCE.My Influences are:Howling Dog Blues; Gospels and Spirituals; African Music; Some Country; Some Reggae; And a whole load o' Rock...

My Interests

Walking in the woods. Playing my Conga. Thinking. Having a right laugh at nobody's expense.

I'd like to meet:

All the true hearted people that are left in this world. .....

Music:

I certainly love the music I make. I've been influenced by everything beautiful I ever heard. I luv Jimmy Hendrix. Did you see? He left word on the 4th of Jan 2007. Da best comment ever! Hey... i listened to your music, it is good.

Movies:

Disney Fairy Tales. Yeah. They get me!

Television:

What TV? I'd rather stare at the sea.

Books:

Love 'em. Particularly Mind, Body and Spirit Books. I have a fair sized library of my own with over a thousand books; all of which I have read and wouldn't mind reading again.

Heroes:

I don't have any heroes but I do like what was going on in the sixties and seventies when people seemed to be so much more optimistic.
