Stepping out from the shadows of family history is always a challenge, but when your surname is that of two of the most famous drummers in musical history, the task can be even more daunting. For Jager Henry, carving his own path has always been in his blood.

Music medicates even the deepest wounds. Jager Henry not only harnesses this power in his songs, but he also transmits it out loud through an intriguing and infectious hybrid of rock, metal, and alternative. One moment, he might scream straight from the gut over gnashing distortion only to enrapture with an airy melody in the next. He unassumingly continues one of the most respected bloodlines in rock ‘n’ roll history as the son of powerhouse drummer Jason Bonham and the grandson of Led Zeppelin drum icon John Bonham, yet he heeds his own calling as a frontman and songwriter. Clear intent defines his 2024 self-titled independent debut EP, Heart Of Thorns.
