Henry Rollins

The Warhol welcomes back spoken word artist, musician, actor, author, radio talk show host, and iconic cultural gadfly, Henry Rollins. Primarily best known as the lead singer for the intense hardcore Rollins Band and the seminal punk band Black Flag, Rollins has also written more than 20 books, runs his own publishing company and record label 2.13.61, and hosts a weekly radio show on KCRW. His spoken word performances—“talking shows,” as he calls them—are a seamless (yet seemingly extemporaneous) mix of humor and outrage; pop culture, political commentary, and personal anecdote; healthy skepticism and rugged optimism.
