There is no blues band performing today as different as HowellDevine—nor as delightful.” ~ Lee Hildebrand, Living Blues Magazine/SF Chronicle
Since forming his group in 2011, Songwriter/guitarist/harmonica player/singer Joshua Howell’s music has been tagged, “shack-shakin music.” Whether on National steel or harmonica, Howell seamlessly intertwines with the propulsively creative rhythm section, Pete Devine (drums, washboard, jug) and Joe Kyle, Jr. (upright bass, caressed, plucked, bowed).
HowellDevine breaks from the norm, providing rich and complex textures integral to the music rather than simple backing for a soloist. The result is a sound that stands in stark contrast to the typical blues heard in bars these days and would more likely be shaking the floors of a Southern juke joint some 70 years ago.
