Henry Invisible

You know you are doing something right when one of your heroes (in this case, the godfather of funk, George Clinton) says incredulously, “How did you do that?” after seeing you open for them. If you are one-man-funk-band Henry Invisible, this is par for the course. Even George Porter Jr of The Meters called him “a bad motherfunker.” Music legends and audiences alike are consistently astounded at the Austinite’s musical dexterity (he plays every instrument himself, even playing the guitar behind his head) and ability to turn any live show or “Lovestream” as he calls them, into a euphoric dance party.

A music festival favorite, Henry Invisible provides the energy and sound of a 6-piece funk band in a compact one man show, complete with a mirrored marching band hat and guitar, bass, percussion vocals and keys all courtesy of Mr. Invisible. In addition to the artist’s most recent singles such as the classic booty-shaker “Hi Life” and the jubilant roller skate jam “Bounce “, you can also find his work on his hero Bootsy Collin’s “Stolen Dreams” from his most recent release, Power Of The One as well as a quick cameo in the video for the title track.
