About Me

Howdo, I am Christopher Henry. Drummer by trade, multi-instrumentalist muso for kicks. I started out at the ripe old age of 3, and began working out on my first drumset at 8. During that time frame I picked up bass, guitar, and clarinet. At 14 I started working the bar/resort circuit in Northern Ontario. I picked up a few more instruments along the way. Now I am currently in Toronto(...and wherever the gigs take me) working with The Clifton David Group. Clifton is currently in San Diego, finishing work on the bands second EP with Arnold Lanni(Sheriff, Frozen Ghost, OLP, Finger Eleven, Simple Plan...many...many more)Clifton, and Neil Chippendale(CDG, and Remy Shand), and I also work with Classic Albums Live. Craig Martin(Producer of CAL) has asked us to perform some of the greatest albums of all time. Are You Experienced?, LA Woman, Dark Side of the Moon, The Joshua Tree, War, Rumors, and at least two or three others. Neil, and I are currently getting ready to do a short run of Born to Run.I also work with a Toronto based boogie band called Flash Lightnin'. With Darren Glover, and D'Arcy Yeats, we lay down some of the dirtiest boogie around at the Dakota Tavern in Toronto. Darren, and I worked together previously in a band called MPH, with his brother Guy Glover. During that time MPH worked with Michael White of The White(a formidable Led Zeppelin tribute show).The work sched is pretty heavy, so as I find time I'll add more pics, and whatnot. In the meantime, check out the bands, and friends. Cheers, and all the best. Chris.
