WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING
ABOUT THE WAYNE HENDERSON EXPERIENCE

Bill Easley, saxophonist
A lot of drummers "keep time" which is an oxymoron. You can't keep time?
Wayne plays time!

Alton Steve Gibson III
Fine all around drummer. I enjoy watching his technique on the skins and as a drummer myself he keeps me inspired to play the jazz licks.

John Colianni, jazz pianist
Wayne Henderson is well-known for his superior technique on drums, which he combines with a driving, infectious, rhythmic pulse. He's musically versatile, but still maintains an identifiable sound and style. A top rank player.
