Michael Henson is a fingerstyle guitarist whose compositions draw upon a variety of influences. In 2000 he produced a CD entitled "Michael Henson & Heartlands", containing his guitar playing within a Chicago based acoustic world music trio called Heartlands. Flying Colors, a self produced solo release, is a CD containing 14 original fingerstyle guitar instrumentals which incorporate elements of various styles of music, including ragtime, Irish, Latin, blues and contemporary folk influences. The recording includes eight solo pieces, five duets and a live Latin piece on classical guitar performed with the Heartlands ensemble. As Henk Te Veldhuis writes in the Bridge Guitar Reviews, "Henson manages to move a listener in 14 varied compositions in his own astonishing guitar signature. A talent we will have to nuture."
