Being part of Finis
Hendersons audience is equivalent to being invited to a reunion
of some of the entertainment industry's greatest legends and contemporary
favorites, Sinatra, Boyz II Men, Elvis Presley, Alan Jackson, Nat
King Cole (and daughter Natalie!), Sammy Davis Jr., and many others
gather on stage for an evening of music, dancing, and comedy. Weaving
the comic personas of the Reverend Jesse Jackson, Rodney Dangerfield
and Mike Tyson through the crowd, one is apt to forget they're
not watching a crazed chorus, but the versatile talent of one dynamic
performer.
The sound is theirs... The voice
is pure Finis Henderson. And as the evening draws to a close, it
isn't a legend that brings the audience to its feet, but the intensely
melodic strain of Mr. Henderson's own rendition of "Music
of the Night"
It was only natural that Finis would
go into show business. His father was a successful song and dance
man, and one time Vice-President of Sammy Davis Jr. Enterprises.
Being exposed to that kind of talent and encouragement, he followed
up with formal training at the Chicago School of the Arts and Columbia
College. Afterwards, he took his act to Los Angeles and polished
it at the famed Comedy Store. Since then he has headlined at the
Trump Taj Mahal in Alantic City and has performed in major comedy
venues and casinos across the nation. Finis recently "struck
gold" at the Gold Strike Casino Resort in Robinsonville, Mississippi
with continuous standing ovations and shows held-over by popular
demand! Finis performed our National Anthem at the Autozone Ballpark
in Memphis during that time. He has also opened for such superstars
as Jackie Mason, Smokey Robinson, Barbara Mandrell, and Alan King,
to name a few.
There is something about Finis Henderson's
performance that makes him stand out from every other musical impressionist
in the business. His obvious passion for entertaining combined
with his elegant style and limitless talent make him one of the
most successful performers on the coporate circuit today. Finis
is doing it all! In addition to live club, casino, and coporate
appearances, his television credits include "Make
Me Laugh", "The
Jackson:" (mini-series), "Nashville
Now", "Comic Strip Live", "Crazy
Horse Saloon", and "A
Little Bit Strange". Films encompass "Wired" and "I'm
Gonna Get You Sucka!" |
