Artist description
With only his home studio and a love of offbeat pop psychedelia, Zeus Henderson has concocted and recorded hundreds of songs with a madcap, do-it-yourself fervor. The layered arrangements,lush harmonies, and slightly deranged lyrics recall the work of the great British bands such as the Move,the Hollies, Beatles, and Syd Barrett set in a modern context. |
