Recording Update

Work continues apace on the three new CDs, and a late Fall release date is being eyed, followed by a substantial list of new tour dates (including Howard's first-ever visit to the Bay Area on the West coast). Over 40 new Howard Fishman songs have been recorded with various ensembles, including songs that have been in the live repertoire for some time (the "Romania" songs) alongside many that have yet to be performed anywhere. All three CDs will be released simultaneously, with a special 3-disc collector's limited edition pressing available as well. Stay tuned!

Seems Like Old Times

From April 2000-September 2003, Howard and the band were in residence every Thursday night at PETE’S CANDY STORE in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The little back room at Pete’s became a sort of musical laboratory for the band, where new material was constantly being tried out, new band members made their debuts, and spontaneity and experimentation ruled. So, it is with great pleasure that we announce Howard’s return to Thursday nights at Pete’s for the month of April only! Two sets begin at 11pm. New material. Special guests. Good times. Don’t miss it.

"Destroyed" in NYC

A newly updated version of Howard’s opera “we are destroyed” will have its next showing at the Abrons Arts Center in New York City on April 24, 25 and 26. Directed by Ed Schmidt, the work-in-progress will feature Susan Oetgen, Nicholas Webber and Sarah Wilson. This will be an expanded version of the work presented at Galapagos Art Space in December 2008 as part of Howard’s 10th anniversary celebration. See link to tickets above right.
