Early influences include Stevie Wonder, Elton John, Brian McKnight, Donny Hathaway and the Beatles. What's playing on my ipod now: John Legend, Gavin Degraw, Marc Broussard, Jamie Cullum, Dave Barnes, Jonny Lang, John McLaughlin and many others.
Rarely are people brought up in a world completely surrounded by music. Carson Henley however, has been immersed in music since birth. In fact, one week prior to delivering Carson, his mom was still performing onstage, giving Carson the unique experience of live rhythms from day one. He grew up listening to the Soul and R&B greats like Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye and Donny Hathaway (from his mother) and the Classic Rock and Funk Albums of The Beatles, Tower of Power and Credence Clearwater Revival (from his father). The 22 year-old singer-songwriter has also been trained on piano at the Pacific Northwest School of Music since the age of 3. It wasn’t until a school talent show during his junior year in high school when Carson first sang in front of anyone. In college, he began writing his own songs and with the encouragement from family and friends. Soon after, he began recording his first album. The songs he wrote are on his debut CD entitled Green Eyed Soul, releasing July, 2008. With soul and power in his voice, Carson music blends old school piano of Elton John and Stevie Wonder, with a mix of rock, pop and soul from today's Maroon 5, Gavin DeGraw, and Marc Broussard.
