A guy named Henning (that’s his first name) writes and sings the songs in School for the Dead. That’s primarily what one needs to know about this band. In fact, Henning, just recently won the WRSI (one of Rollingstone’s Top 10 Radio Stations) Singer Songwriter Contest. Yay.
Members of School for the Dead have been in bands with and/or recorded with such luminaries as Mark Mulcahy (Miracle Legion), Chris Collingwood (Fountains of Wayne), Lloyd Cole, Joe Pernice (Scud Mountains Boys, The Pernice Brothers) and Tao Rodriguez-Seeger.
Bands that members of SFTD have been part of include The Maggies, New Radiant Storm King, The Aloha Steamtrain, The Mammals, The Gay Potatoes, Lo Fine, The Figments, King Radio, Spanish for Hitchhiking, The Tea Lights, and Humbert.
With that information, the savvy reader will have discerned that SFTD is based in the Northeast. Yes, that is the case.
School for the Dead has shared the stage with World Party, Robyn Hitchcock, Evan Dando, Freedy Johnston, Mates of State, Of Montreal, J. Mascis, Jane Siberry (Issa), Fountains of Wayne, Martin Sexton, Harry and the Potters, Naked Eyes, and Ivy among many others.
Here’s what some people have said about School for the Dead:
“For about four or five years now, I’ve been playing Henning’s songs for people and saying they were my own. Please don’t tell him that. Brief, romantic and simple, in a why-didn’t-I-think-of-that way, his stories and melodies touch people without resorting to attitude or pretense. If his name weren’t so hard to pronounce, he’d be Yngwie Malmsteen by now.”
