About yourself
Tess Henley, the Seattle chanteuse with the smooth voice, is brand new to the neo-soul scene. However, with CD reviewers in the U.S. and Europe spreading the word, it won’t be long before people know her name. JazzAndSoul.eu calls Easy to Love “An extremely fresh album”. The highly respected SoulAndJazzAndFunk (UK) says "Tess shows remarkable maturity and focus, her music is draped in luscious harmonies; it's truly infectious. The Henley approach to music is all about craftsmanship, commitment and an appreciation of what truly constitutes musicality.” SoulTracks (U.S.) writes “Henley as a vocalist doesn't suffer from being compared to Alicia Keys. Both eschew the breathy little girl sound that is the rage these days. Henley, like Keys, opens her mouth and gives a full-throated vocal that sounds mature, passionate and believable.”

Tess may be new to fame, but she is definitely not new to music. Her mother was a very pregnant, struggling singer who performed nightly shows next to thumping bass and drums, until the very week she gave birth to Tess. Tess took that rhythm and began playing classical piano every day by the age of 3. That training helped develop her strong songwriting skills, setting Tess apart from the crowd. She has a pure, emotional voice that she uses to refine the tapestry of R&B and soul into her own smooth silk. Tess likes to write addictive, musically rich songs that soothe the soul of young and old alike. An admitted perfectionist, she says Easy was recorded at Soul Sound Studios, and adds with a humble smile. “Wow, that project was all about hard work and long hours. It definitely makes me proud, but seeing everybody having a good time at our live shows is the real joy." (Listen to Tess on Pandora.com)
