A classically trained lyric soprano, singer-songwriter, and poet, Howes spends her time writing, teaching, recording, working with at-risk youth, and playing on the shores of Lake Superior with her two children. Her second, full-length album, MotherSongs was just released in October 2010. You can find out more at www.heidihowes.com.
“All of her songs drip with compassion, dreaminess and inspiration. Beautifully haunting.
Fans of Alison Krauss, Mindy Smith, Watermark, and Rita Springer would find this CD an important addition to their music rotation.”
