Howard Jennings

Ready to Listen

December 2009

Howard Jennings is a talented singer and songwriter from New York. He released his new album this past December but is definitely no stranger to the stage. He has shared the stage with Ryan Cabrera, Eve 6, Marcy Playground and others. His voice and style has been compared to Jack Johnson, Dave Matthews and Tom Petty. His songs are easy to sing along with with a sometimes raspy, sultry sound. Howard has serious and fun loving songs amongst his new album with a lot of acoustic guitar, relatable lyrics, inviting tone, and warm melodies. To top everything off, Howard just got done signing a licensing agreement with MTV for possible song placement on Real World and Keeping Up With the Kardashians. He is clearly a talent everyone should partake in. www.howardjenningsmusic.com
