Michael Henchman w/Band at The Artichoke

Hey everyone... It's been a long time since I've had the privilege and excitement of doing a show with a full band. We'll be doing some songs from my new record "If The Sky Fell" which was released in January, along with some old favorites. Joining me will be well-known Portland musicians Jean-Pierre Garau (keyboard), Bryan Daste (pedal steel and guitar, also the co-producer of my record), Dale Jones (bass) and James Kehn (drums). Hope to see you there!

Hailing from the evergreen Pacific Northwest, Michael Henchman's thoughtful, imagery-rich songwriting often draws inspiration from roads less traveled that have beckoned since childhood - living across the U.S., in Europe, and many years in central Alaska - to create a contemporary sound that is at once warm and reminiscent. His music has been described as "progressive folk, mixed with redwoods, diners, grassy plains, a generous dash of longing, and a bit of road dust for texture."

Michael is a singer and multi-instrumentalist who has performed as a soloist and in various bands over many years, opening for such diverse acts as Maria Muldaur and Blue Oyster Cult. While living in Alaska, he also composed and produced instrumental music for Alaska public television. His third collection of songs - “If The Sky Fell” - was released in January 2025, an eclectic mix of alternative folk, roots, country, even a touch of jazz.
