Helen Henderson

Helen Henderson hails from Southland, New Zealand. Helen started her musical career in London, and is now based in Los Angeles. Her first CD, "The Sonora Sessions " was recorded in Los Angeles, and had excellent reviews. "Henderson matches her powerful backing with confident originals and a convincing mid American voice ..... but it's the folk demons of her Southland childhood that she returns to in "The Ballad of Minnie Dean." Nick Bollinger, The Listener. "She carries these songs on the strength of her songwriting which is right out of the Southern traditions.... a highly convincing introduction to someone we could happily hear more from." Graham Reid, The Herald.
Her latest CD "Twisting Wind" was recorded at F.A.M.E.Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, fondly referred to as "the cradle of rock and roll." Powerful and raw, this CD captures a moment in time, and some tantalizing soul from a "Kiwi Siren." The CD rocks. Helens soulful voice and haunting songs lure you to the rocks, tempt you with the promise of dry land, and leave you wanting more.
Produced by Helen Henderson, "Twisting Wind," features stunning new material, played by some of the worlds finest international musicians.
