“(Nielsen) moved the crowds with his folksy Dylan-meets-Bright Eyes blend of strumming & singing” The Guardian (live review)
“Henry Nielsen is talented & charismatic… his songs captivate with their sincerity & honesty” Indie Dock Music Blog
Ahead of the release of his debut album, mid-tier 1970s styled singer-songwriter Henry Nielsen shares the track The Beginning Of The End – a song about the cost of living life on your own terms.
Pulling influence from seventies artists like Jackson Browne & Neil Young & others, Henry contemporises the genre, bringing it into the modern-day with a lyrical slant towards isolation & anxiety.
With its lyric exploring a relationship of two unequal halves, The Beginning Of the End is a superb introduction to this most thoughtful & intimate of artists. “I’m sorry, I forgot. We’d agreed to meet halfway” sings Henry with an air of honest disclosure that echoes throughout his work, all supported by a warm & distinctly analogue instrumentation featuring lap-steel guitar & soft organ fills that hold it all in place.
