Sounds Like
A finger-picked roux of acoustic Americana, folk, blues, tongue-in-cheek-true-life-adventures, outright lies and sarcastic political expectations, all sung in a finely simmered baritone stew that leaves you hungry for more.
Hailing from Dallas, Texas, Lane Howard is a singer/songwriter who blends flattop picking and old world harmonies to create a signature, acoustic sound reflective of traditional, musical styles. Lane Howard is a self-taught musician, whose skills and talents playing the guitar, dobro, mandolin, ukulele and piano frame the innovation behind his thriving career.
Early in life, Lane garnered the notion that as human beings we all have shared experiences. Lane illustrates these experiences as they stem from the situations and circumstances that frame everyday life. Chasing the layers of his artistry, Lane moved to Los Angeles, finding an array of opportunities to perform live at various coffee house and music festival venues. These experiences led Lane to securing a publishing deal with NBC Television writing background music for their new daily entertainment news program, Access Hollywood.
Leaving LA, Lane relocated to Austin, Texas settling comfortably in the vast Austin music scene. Influenced by The Delmore Brothers, Kate Wolf, Willie Dixon, John Lee Hooker, Leo Kottke, Cab Calloway, B.W. Stevenson, Nanci Griffith, Muddy Waters, Tish Hinojosa, George Harrison, The Band, the great Gene Hughes and many, many more., Lane maintaines his determination to communicate a strong sense of feeling through his music.

Ciao Lane Howard ti volevamo ringraziare per le tue parole e per il tuo sostegno in periodo così difficile per noi.
Questi ringraziamenti non sono formali, sono veramente sinceri a nome nostro, della moglie di Enrico Paola e a nome dei suoi figli.
Le ceneri di Enrico Micheletti sono disperse nel mar Tirreno e stanno viaggiando nell' universo. Noi speriamo che anche la sua anima abbia raggiunto finalmente il miglior approdo possibile.
Cosa fare del suo materiale in nostro possesso e del materiale che abbiamo registrato insieme?
Dopo aver pensato a lungo sul da farsi abbiamo deciso di pubblicarlo. Lo pubblicheremo su Itunes ed altri siti così tutti potranno trovarlo se lo cercano. Glielo dobbiamo. Glielo deve chi lo ha conosciuto.
Cercheremo di pubblicare tutto ciò che è in nostro possesso nei primi mesi del 2009.
Appena sarà tutto pronto ti faremo sapere.
Per adesso ti auguriamo Buon Natale e Felice Anno Nuovo. Dio ti benedica ancora, grazie. Suonate il blues più che potete!!!!!
