If you like this he does MUCH more than just "that solo with Snarky Puppy..." several live albums with that band (Sylva, groundUP, Family Dinner Vol. 2, more) as well as many amazing live performances with the funk apostles (rooftop, jazz fests, etc.), BBC Proms with Jacob Collier, his own solo albums...

Sharay has always been an incredible bassist, been a follower of his since he played for CeCe Winans “Throne Room Tour” back in 2004, but since that time especially with Funk Apostles, Sharay Reed has continued to evolve into something other worldly, I mean its unexplainable. He feels the soul, funk, and gospel and just takes it to another planet. Incredible work!

He has such a short practical singing range though. He cannot even pull off the low notes he included. And he cannot belt out in his main working octave - only on his high notes. The music is repetitive and gets boring quickly because of the poor lyrical writing. And that studio needs to invest in an extra plug-in A/C unit cause the band is swimming in sweat :P

No one there, myself included, seemed to know what we were in for but he brought the house down. Post broadcast encore performance with Cory Henry and Chris Thile jam session set the place ablaze.

The band chemistry is on another level!

It's so nice to know that I can set my EQ flat when listening to Tiny Desk. Thank you, Josh Rogosin.

Thanks to the audio engineer. This sounds amazing!

Who are the 102 philistines who don't like this!!?? I'm of a certain generation that remembers the original 'funk' - every last one of these musicians is fantastic and a credit to the genre!!

All I can imagine rn is the PRESSURE the drummer is under lol, keeping that timing and still adding nits and bits everywhere flawlessly. Still Cory Henry never ceases to amaze me... First heard of him with Lingus, then with Billie Jean, then with Stayin’ Alive, I thought I was already amazed enough... Now THIS!? Man oh mannnn. What a beautiful soul!

I've watched corey henry from the sidelines for years. I'm glad to see him take off as a musician and singer.

I am so proud of Cory. I have all of his recordings and have watched him for years on KZread playing with Snarky Puppy, BBC specials and in various churches. This man is so incredibly talented. His voice is perfect, raspy and raw - exactly what is needed for his music. In the days of auto-tune, it is absolutely refreshing to hear singers sing and hear instruments played.

GOAT for this era and generation. Cory Henry has tapped into the music heavens. Timeless sound.

Finally, I already know this will be the most underrated NPR Session.

Cory's various important sentiments here are amazingly and totally righteous. Music unites and is a gift. We can find love and freedom, know ourselves thru' it, and find spiritual peace when we listen. Could be the next Stevie Wonder? Thanks NPR
