Tess Henley

Singer, songwriter & producer, Tess Henley, began Suzuki piano training at age three, and by age five was dissecting harmonies that even her mother – a singer by trade – found difficult. As she entered the world of songwriting, she discovered her niche as an artist, winning a string of national and international songwriting competitions. In 2014, multi-Grammy winning producer Don Was (Rolling Stones, John Mayer, Bonnie Raitt) selected Henley from over 10,000 performers as the winner of Guitar Center’s National Artist Discovery Program. “She’s unlike any artist that’s out there now, a world class singer with a true gift” says Was. Billboard describes her music as a "classy brand of soulful R&B that could hold up in any era." Henley honed her live performance by sharing the stage with folks like Earth, Wind & Fire, Jill Scott, Anthony Hamilton, Boy George & Culture Club & more, while continuing to build her profile as a songwriter. She made her national television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live in 2015, where she performed a pair of songs from “Wonderland.” Henley’s songs have won over $100,000 in awards and honors.
