Henry Grace
Henry Grace is a British singer-songwriter who moved to America at the age of 21 in search of a new life. Struggling with depression and determined to forge a different path, he left home and made his way to Arizona and then on to California where he started working as a musician while studying at UC Berkeley
.
He self-released two early EPs, which earned him his first radio plays, and started building a loyal following on the west coast selling out venues such as the Hotel Cafe in LA. As his time in the States continued, he made the transition from British folk singer to Americana songwriter and began to draw comparisons to the likes of Jeff Buckley, Bruce Springsteen and many of the other great American storytellers.

After five years in the States, Grace moved back home to London where he started to tour relentlessly. Playing over a hundred dates in 2019 alone, he headlined sell out shows at St Pancras Old Church and Bush Hall, supported artists such as Benjamin Clementine and Hussain Manawer and collaborated with companies such as Sofar Sounds to advocate for mental health awareness – raising tens of thousands for UK charities through live music.

His debut album is set to be released later this year.
