Tom Howie
Tom Howies talent lies in his ability to weigh the ups and downs of what is really meaingful in ways that awaken us to our own reality. He confronts his confusion and ours while instilling in us a message of hope. Audiences respond with quiet knowing when he sings about a world he doesnt completely understand or agree with.
"...one incredibly talented singer-songwriter...soon-to-be-household name Tom Howie."
- Kelly Doody, The Calgary Sun
The 21-year-old Canadian is currently a scholarship student at the Berklee College of Music. Despite his age, he's already had a production deal with Ashwin Sood, drummer for acclaimed singer/songwriter Sarah McLachlan (with Sarah performing on several of the tracks, he released an EP entitled Song is the Lifeblood), he has been courted by major labels, and has played extensively throughout Western Canada.
I was having all these incredible experiences. I was recording with the pros, opportunity was on my doorstep, and everything was great, but it just didnt feel right, Tom says when asked about the experiences. At the end of the day, you have to be 100% creatively behind what you are doing or else no one is going to believe you. I was creatively confused and lost and my heart just wasnt in it. It just didnt feel right.
What did feel right was to apply to Berklee College of Music in Boston. Not only was he accepted, he received a songwriting scholarship to attend. Im just writing songs that capture my reality, and the more I do it, the more I realize that everyone else is going through the exact same things I am.
