Preview story from AnnArbor.com
Trying to classify Joe Henry by genre is futile. He's been active as a singer, songwriter, guitarist, and producer for 20 years, and he's kept people guessing the whole time. Joe has recorded country, hard rock, and electronic albums, and lately he has called himself a jazz artist. Yet his voice is consistent. Joe writes spare, episodic lyrics that look for meaning between the lines and among life's small moments. Who else could compare a woman to “an anvil,” “a bomb scare” and “Roosevelt’s funeral in the street” -- in the same song?

Raised in Michigan, Joe is married to Madonna's sister Melanie Ciccone, and he's been a creative producer of everyone from Ramblin' Jack Elliott to Harry Belafonte to, now, the Carolina Chocolate Drops. Joe's new album, "Blood from Stars," is drenched in classic jazz and blues and has been earning critical raves.
