Henri's Notions
Tuscaloosa, AL
For over thirty years, Henri's Notions has performed at countless festivals and concerts in the Southern and Eastern United States as well as Ontario. From soft finger-picked ballads to hard-driving jigs and reels, Henri's Notions creates a musical mix of traditional Celtic and American music along with their own compositions that have a rhythm and voice reflective of their Southern heritage, which lends a pleasing familiarity to the music. The Notions draw from a broad palette of melodious sounds: the ardent sounds of fiddle, lilting flute, keen tin whistles, all played over the resonant tones and drive of the rhythm section, consisting of acoustic guitars, bass, and percussion. Lead voices dance through the intricate embellishments that bring to life the old and new ballads and songs and all members lend voices frequently creating close, rich, well-balanced harmonies.
