A conspicuously talented accompanist before he reached his teens, the San Francisco native has thrived since moving to New York City in 2016, forging deep creative connections with leading contemporaries, mid-career masters, and revered veterans.
Tonite he brings an electrifying band to Bar Lunatico. Fueled by an energetic and dynamic playing style, Howell will take the audience on a journey through the diverse realms of Afro-diasporic traditions. Growing up in a musical household, Howell's influences include artists such as Miles Davis, Youssou N’Dour, James Brown, and Earth, Wind & Fire.
With a deep appreciation for musical roots and a fearless exploration of new sounds, Howell weaves his own voice into the folds of his unique compositions that result in a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation, offering an auditory experience that is both timeless and contemporary. Don't miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in this new sound!
