about

"Waits." contains six of my favorite songs from the incomparable Tom Waits. I've been intrigued, excited and buoyed by his music for the last several years and felt that this was what I was supposed to do for my next project. I didn't want to reimagine or recreate anything too heavily, so we kept the songs at a level that are clearly giving a nod to Tom but not attempting to match his music entirely. I hope you enjoy what you hear.

about

Howard Louis Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Howard Louis comes armed with powerful vocals and a piano. He fuses sounds of rock, alternative, pop, and even flavors of show tunes in his catalog of songs. His honest lyrics are perceptive, biting, self-deprecating, and naked. All of these qualities are crafted over melodic soundscapes that are sometimes dark, sometimes quirky, and sometimes raw and beautiful. ... more
