Considered one of the world’s finest jazz guitarists, Band on the Wall is delighted to welcome the wonderful Scott Henderson and his trio for an evening of superlative music.

Born in 1954, Scott Henderson grew up in an era where blues-rock was at it’s peak. His formative musical years took place in South Florida where he played the clubs with all kinds of bands playing everything from Led Zepplin to James Brown

Even though Henderson claims to be more of a blues-rock player, it was the influence of jazz that led him to the style of playing and composing that he is now famous for.

Henderson formed the band Tribal Tech in 1984 with bassist Gary Willis, and after nine critically acclaimed albums, with the newest Rocket Science released on the ESC/Tone center label in November 2000, Henderson has proven himself as a world class player and composer. 

In 1991, he was named by Guitar World as the #1 Jazz Guitarist, and in January 1992, he was named #1 Jazz Guitarist in Guitar Player’s Annual Reader’s Poll.

Scott will be joined on stage by Travis Carlton (bass) and Alan Hertz (drums).
