    I know some of you have already gotten the "heads up" on Howie Day...

    well, anyway... if you haven't you should...

    and he will be on the Craig Kilborn show on July 29th... should be amazing... he'll either do "Ghost" with all the looping and "Beams of Light" or "Sorry, So Sorry"

    Here's Rolling Stone's review of his first album...

    Howie Day is a young songwriter from Maine who's creating a buzz by performing only with a guitar and some effects pedals. He plays a riff, samples and loops it, and then strums and sings over his instant, virtually live accompaniment. First independently released in 2000, his debut, Australia, rarely reflects that homespun mix of folk and DIY tech: Most of it was recorded conventionally with mundane musicians, and it's neither a polished, fully realized studio work, nor does it represent what the guy can do in person. With a band behind him, Day loses soulfulness, and his influences (Jeff Buckley, David Gray, Oasis) become too obvious. Still, Australia shows off some of Day's precocious compositional skills and his emotionally naked presence. On "Kristina," which he plays solo, as he does in person, this one-man emo machine gently entangles his voice with echoes of himself to ethereal effect. It's there that Day's possibilities reveal themselves.

    his live shows are unreal... with a band it isn't as great... but Australia was also recorded 2-3 years ago when Howie was 18-19 and was done in various studios and basements on borrowed time...

    i urge anyone interested to check out the messageboards at http://www.howieday.com and download some of his live shows and listen to them knowing that it is only one person w/ one guitar... it's amazing
