The long overdue eponymous album has been greeted with universal acclaim across the continent and confirms, as The Times puts it, that "Canada's musical stock has never stood higher."
Howie has just ended a UK tour as special guest to The 18th Day Of May. He also toured as special guest to Josh Rouse on his Scandinavian dates. He also takes part in the legendary Les Nuits Botaniques in Brussels, and performed a number of headline shows across Europe throughout May
A single has been confirmed to follow the tour. DON'T BE AFRAID is a brand new edited version of the track from his album. The single also features a stunning acoustic interpretation of The Strokes' REPTILIA which has already been doing the rounds on myspace and the internet in general. A final track, ALICE, is also taken from his latest album and won a SOCAN Number 1 song award in Beck's native Canada when it was released last year. The single is released on May 22nd .
