I probably shouldn’t do this but I’m excited about writing and recording new songs for my next album, so I wanted to preview just one of them, a simple song called “You Know Me”. Hope you like it…

I’m particularly pleased because this album was quite a challenge for me to write and to record. I had to teach myself how to play the piano and double bass parts of the songs, and this was a brilliant experience. So recognition like this is very rewarding. Grateful thanks to Michael and Jamey.

Proud To Be Included On This Album With So Many Fine Guitarists…Out Now!
Nice press acclaim
Heading West, which marks Howe’s fourth journey with Real Music, features some of his most sublime music to date. The guitar is central on this release, featuring warm, carefree strumming that is accented by keyboards, piano and rhythm. Songs like “Old Wooden House” and “American Travels” have a pensive beauty to them — the guitar harmonies bear a reflective essence, as if Howe is wandering through old haunts reminiscing of past joys. “Badlands” ups the tempo a bit and adds a bit of bluesy groove, while maintaining Howe’s signature laid-back flair. A must listen for fans of relaxing guitar music.
