Larry Heard, also known as Mr. Fingers, is an American producer and DJ from Chicago who is credited with inventing deep house, having recorded foundational tracks like "Can You Feel It" and "Washing Machine" in 1986 that defined the aesthetic of the genre for all time. His minimal arrangements and profound emotional depth influenced virtually every house producer who followed, and his rare live appearances are celebrated events. He continues to record and perform, with a remarkable body of work still expanding.
