John Howie, Jr.: Proof That Good Guys Don’t Always Come In Last

Once in a blue moon, an artist such as John Howie, Jr. comes along. Professional and community-aware, John’s ace drumming, songwriting, and encouraging presence have been a solid fixture in the North Carolina music scene for over 20 years. From Punk to Alt-Country to Honky Tonk, John has run the course. Honestly? He could easily hang his hat on the years of personal music success (recordings, tours, associated acts, etc.) he has attained and just enjoy the reputation he carved out… But, one of the things that sets him apart from others is that he would never do that! John continues to give and engage and participate. An artist who loves what he does, knows it’s not all about him, and continues to show up? How refreshing.
I hope you’ll familiarize yourself with his music and songwriting, Attend one of his Rosewood Bluff or Disarmers shows if they play near you. You’ll be thrilled.
Thank you, John, for your aggressively honest approach to your music and your life.
