After years of focusing on touring as a member of the band Flogging Molly, Matt Hensley has re-taken a “hands on” role at his skateboard clothing company Innes. His brother Chris also returns to help crank up the company they started together in 1996. Seeing the need for strong management savvy, they lured Greg Tunney with over 20 years of experience as a Sr. Executive, to pull together the business side while they concentrate on the companys direction and design strategy. Matts commitment to Flogging Molly doesnt change one iota. With his tour bus rigged for wireless he takes a daily role even while touring.
Matt Hensley commented “To me, skateboarding and music have always gone hand in hand. I wanted Innes to reflect that”
“We take our connection to both skateboarding and music very seriously. There has always been a core skater loyalty to the Innes brand. We want to help that grow”
“I dig having customers come up to me after our shows. Its great to wind down and shoot the shit with skateboarders from all over the world. Its a big family”
