Henry Rollins (born Henry Lawrence Garfield; February 13, 1961) is an American singer-songwriter, spoken word artist, writer, publisher, actor, and radio DJ.

After performing for the short-lived Washington D.C.-based band State Of Alert in 1980, Rollins fronted the California band Black Flag from August 1981 until early 1986. Following the band’s breakup, Rollins soon established the record label and publishing company 2.13.61 to release his spoken word albums, as well as forming the Rollins Band, which toured with a number of lineups until 2003 and during 2006.

Since Black Flag, Rollins has embarked on projects covering a variety of media. He has hosted numerous radio shows, such as “Harmony In My Head” on Indie 103, and television shows such as “The Henry Rollins Show”, “MTV’s 120 minutes”, and “Jackass”. He had a recurring dramatic role in the second season of “Sons of Anarchy” and has also had roles in several films. Rollins has also campaigned for various political causes in the United States, including promoting LGBT rights, World Hunger Relief, and an end to war in particular.
