Henry traveled around the world while performing with the U.S. Air Force's international band, “Tops in Blue”. This allowed him to expand his knowledge of global rhythms and provided the stage for him to work with legends such as Maynard Ferguson, Bob Hope, and Lucille Ball, to name a few. In 1989, Henry created The Latin Playerz, an ensemble that incorporates a variety of Latin styles with Rhythm and Blues, Swing, and straight ahead Jazz. They've become a touring force, popular in the United States and around the world. When not performing with his ensemble, Henry can often be found presenting educational workshops or touring with international acts such as Arturo Sandoval, Justo Almario, Charo, Los Lobos, Little Joe y La Familia, and many others. Henry’s vivacious performances infect the audience with the desire to join in on the fun during his shows.
