Hensley, Ken Faster

2011, With his latest release FASTER, Hensley proves that he has lost nothing of his magical touch. Live Fire is the Norwegian live backing-band Hensley has been working with for five years now and is comprised of Tom Arne Fossheim on drums, Sid Rinsby on bass, Ken Ingwersen on guitar, and Eiríkur Hauksson next to Ken Hensley as singer. Recorded in Riga, Latvia in three weeks time with Live Fire, FASTER offers everything you would expect from a classic Ken Hensley record - and more. Opening up with the mystical and mesmerizing melodic rock of ,,Set Me Free (From Yesterday)", Hensley & Live Fire deliver the goods as well as setting the tone for an album that is nothing short of strong songwriting, hooks and pure playfulness. FASTER also features some straight-ahead, good-time rockers like its title track. FASTER shows that Hensley's head and soul are still full of rock!
