About Henry Threadgill
Saxophonist Henry Threadgill is a contemporary composer of distinction whose art transcends stylistic boundaries. He spent the 1970s with experimental jazz trio Air, and cut six albums with the Henry Threadgill Sextett during the '80s. After Too Much Sugar for a Dime in 1993, he founded Make a Move and Very Very Circus, who appeared on 1995's Makin' a Move. Threadgill created the ongoing Zooid project and released Up Popped the Two Lips in 2011. 2015's In for a Penny, In for a Pound won the Pulitzer Prize. Threadgill debuted Ensemble Double Up on 2016's Old Locks and Irregular Verbs. Zooid's Poof appeared in 2021. In May 2023, he issued The Other One, a musical component of a large multimedia work recorded live in Brooklyn by a 12-piece ensemble. That month also saw the Penguin publication of Threadgill's autobiography Easily Slip into Another World.
