Henry, whose emotive music and TikToks have gained him global attention at the tender age of just 18, notes, “I’m part of the generation that has grown up with social media, always able to hide behind our phones and I realise how difficult it can be to connect with new people. It’s so important for me to help people my age to get out there, make memories, and develop real-life connections, and I hope this gig is the kickstarter for lots of long-standing relationships.”
