Howes’ melodies gliding arrangements and drift away vocals provide easy unobtrusive listening.
Some music critics stated that his songs sound like vintage, blues-based, 60s- classic….” Just Walk Away” even has a light-dusting of southwest blues;” other say that “Vocals are somewhat reminiscent of Alejandro Escovedo’s especially so on the closer, You Gotta Be Real, which could pass for an old True Believer Tune…”
B.D. Howes is not a stranger to Utah; he has performed at several locations around the area. Howes also has been guest and featured at KUTV Channel 2 news show as well KSL Channel 5, the Salt Lake Tribune, Deseret News, The Standard-Examiner and The Park Record
Organizer
Mountain Town MusicWe present a bouillabaisse of music to stimulate the sense of groove for music lovers, life lovers & everybody in between. We believe in the power of music and are creating one community under a groove with every show that we program —whether it be at a rodeo ground in Peoa, Main Street in Coalville or in the mountains of Park City. In 2018, with our community partners, we programmed 379 shows, reached just over 350,000 people of all ages, provided workshops for over 1,000 Summit County students and gave back 3.3 million dollars to our community. The majority of our shows are free and we encourage dancing, singing and the joyful celebration of music. We program over 300 community concerts each year. We produce outreach programs in local schools and educational concerts at Deer Valley for students K-12. We promote email and on air broadcasting to promote ALL live music in Summit County. We provide web and grass roots-based networking platforms for musicians and live music entities. We partner with other non-profits to reach common, community-driven goals and objectives. Mountain Town Stages dba Mountain Town Music is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization.435-901-7664 MountainTownMusic@gmail.com
