Why this recording

Before the first song, the video spends six minutes backstage: rehearsal, soundcheck, Cory Henry arriving at the venue and a segment on the fans, with the show itself only starting at 6:13. The chapters then mark every song, from “Lead Ya” to “Rise”. At 1:01, Henry introduces his band on stage. Kamasi Washington steps in at 1:18 on “Alone”, Eric Gales at 1:40 on “Rise”, which closes the video. The film is released by the artist himself, under the Henry House Entertainment and Culture Collective banner.

Full concert film of Cory Henry live at The Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles, captured on 15 October 2022 during the tour behind his Grammy-nominated album Operation Funk. A former Snarky Puppy keyboardist, the New York organist and singer delivers nearly two hours of incandescent funk steeped in gospel, soul and extended Hammond-organ improvisation. This live performance presents the complete set, from “Lead Ya” to “Rise,” taking in “Something New,” “The Line” and “Holy Ghost,” many stretched into collective jams. Two notable guests join the stage: saxophonist Kamasi Washington on “Alone” and guitarist Eric Gales on “Rise.” Carefully shot, the recording conveys the band’s physical energy and Henry’s virtuoso interplay across keyboards, organ and vocals. It stands as a reference document for anyone tracing contemporary American funk in 2022, poised between soul heritage and live abandon. Watch the full concert live: Cory Henry, The Fonda, Los Angeles, 2022, a complete concert film in high definition.
