Henry Hassell

Devon based Henry Hassell is a 16-year-old indie singer/songwriter who first started performing at 7 years old at a local fair. As soon as he picked up a guitar he was hooked, starting with covers and now with the release of his first single, ‘Both Sides’, his melodic guitar riffs and insightful lyrics will stick in your head for days. 

Henry’s authentic writing is influenced by artists such as Sam Fender, The Backseat Lovers, Newton Faulkner and the Native. After being spotted at a local open mic night, with his first festival performance on the introducing stage at Chagstock in 2022, Henry hasn’t looked back. With an EP in production, a new single release, and new music waiting to be revealed, 2024 is an exciting year for the young storyteller.
