Henry Wolfe

Retro Lounge Living Room sessions
A perennially laid-back person, it?s no wonder Wolfe
was so inspired by the chilled-out L.A. music scene.
He,d done most of his growing up on the East Coast, and
though his grandfather spent his free time writing
hundreds of songs, he is the only musician in his
immediate family. Not that they,re lacking for talent.
His mother, Meryl Streep, has a beautiful singing
voice, and his father, Don Gummer, is a sculptor and a
painter. Two of his three sisters, Mamie and Grace
Gummer are also actors. A self-taught musician, Wolfe
began writing songs compulsively after receiving a
guitar for his 14th birthday. High school and college
were filled with rock band gigs, and after settling in
New York City, Wolfe started and fronted the New York-
based indie rock group Bravo Silva. In 2005 the band
self-released an eponymous LP, which they,d recorded in
the basement of a windowless first floor apartment in
Brooklyn. Despite favorable reviews popping up
everywhere from taste-making music blogs to The New
York Times, Bravo Silva disbanded within a year of the
album,s release. I found myself with the unique
opportunity to expand my horizons as a songwriter,
Wolfe recalls. I no longer had to write songs that fit
into a mold. I was free to move, literally and
artistically.
