In 1988 Shrapnel Records owner and renowned guitar connoisseur Mike Varney asked Howe to record an album for his label after hearing a demo that Greg had sent him with the hopes of being featured in Varney's Spotlight column for Guitar Player magazine. That album, simply entitled "Greg Howe", featured then David Lee Roth’s bassist Billy Sheehan and renowned drummer Atma Anur. It instantly caught the attention of the whole guitar community and eventually led to numerous endorsement deals, print advertising and countrywide clinics. After recording two vocal albums with his brother (1990's "High Gear" and 1991's "Now Hear This"), Greg’s second solo album (1993's "Introspection") set the tone for what would eventually become a series of eight fresh forays in to the mosaic of fusion, rock, funk, blues, and jazz. With each subsequent album - 1994's "Uncertain Terms", 1995's "Parallax", 1996's "Five", 1998's "Ascend", and 2000's "Hypercuity" Howe would make bolder and more satisfying strides into fusion music.

Along the way he would make himself available as a sideman for pop superstars, filling in for guitarist Jennifer Batten in 1996 on Michael Jackson's History tour throughout Europe and Asia. In 2000 Greg did a promotional tour of the U.S. involving numerous high exposure television appearances as well as a tour in Europe with pop star Enrique Iglesias. He also made two separate tours of the states in 2001 and 2002 as the lead guitarist for NSYNC, one of which was stadium shows exclusively. In 2003 Greg did a promotional tour with Justin Timberlake, although ultimately ended up having to leave in order to complete work on his 2003 release "Extraction", the critically acclaimed all-star funk fusion extravaganza, featuring electric bass virtuoso Victor Wooten ( of the flecktones ) and the legendary drummer Dennis Chambers.

Greg's busy schedule continues with various projects. Currently, he is in production for a series of online music courses www.ghworkshops.com and he has just completed and released his latest album "Sound Proof". He is very active with guitar clinics, trade shows, and mini tours around the world.
