Raised in Florida in the USA and known for his work in the band Tribal Tech that he co-founded in the 1980s, Scott Henderson has been something of a infrequent visitor to India. Nevertheless, with each visit, his ties have deepened. The guitar virtuoso who is known for his jazz and blues playing, will be back for two nights at Windmills in Bengaluru this weekend.
Influenced by guitar greats such as Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix, there is also an undoubtable rock stamp in Henderson’s style. A description for the event adds, “With a career spanning decades, he has shared the stage with icons like Chick Corea and Jean-Luc Ponty, leaving a lasting impression with his remarkable compositions and unmatched tone.”
Additionally, Henderson has several accolades to his name, including Best Guitarist and Best Electric/Jazz-Rock/Contemporary Group/Artist in the Jazz Times Reader’s Poll (2019) and the #1 Jazz Guitarist by Guitar World and the Guitar Player’s Annual Reader’s Poll in the 1990s.
