David Lee Howard and the Band
For over 20 years, Dave Lee Howard has been traveling the globe as the Outlaw Troubadour, performing on thousands of stages in the USA, Asia, and Europe. With his spectacular 12 String Guitar talents and a trunk full of songs, he has captivated audiences with wild, cutting edge instrumentals and musical tales of adventure, heartache, and redemption. As the consummate performer, he has taken his career further than many contemporary artists and established himself in a class all his own.
Born in San Francisco, raised in the USA, Japan and all over Europe, he started playing in bands in the 1960`s, settling in Seattle, Washington in the 70`s, always returning to his roots in Germany for annual tours. So it was no surprise when he traveled there in 2002 to form the Dave Lee Howard Band, assembling this group from the ground up with the help of Artist Commune-kahouse in Frankfurt.
Super Fiddler, Ralf Hübner contributed his talents to Dave`s singer songwriter tour. Ralf is one of the most sought after violinists internationally, first chair violin at the Symphony Orchester of Frankfurt and recent tours with Sarah Brightman and many more. Katrin Haag, whose studio and live "musicals" stage experience contributes tailor made harmonies and on stage charisma. The rhythm section consists of Felix Wiegand on Upright Bass and Paul Hochstädter on Drums, seasoned musicians with vast exposure in Rockabilly, Country, Big Band and versatile studio sessions. They create the absolute groove. All were handpicked and chosen on the basis of their personal charm as well as superb musicianship. Surrounding himself with young, fresh, energetic talent, Dave himself is in awe of their pride and appreciation of his original music.
My good friend and violin virtuous Ralf Huebner has not only managed to increase the population of Germany, with Olga’s able assistance, but he has also managed to snag some pretty incredible sideman gigs. Scorpions comes to mind in Munich, but most indelibly his joining Ian Anderson’s Jethro Tull as a full time member is the coup de ta of magnificent proportions. Sure enough after proving himself as the Paganini of cult rock with Ian’s unplugged tour he has been asked officially to join. Wow!
Felix has been busy with several bands and projects but last year he and Dick Brave were shipped off to Costa Rica to play 3 songs @ Pink’s wedding! Incredible, she loved their version of “Get the Party Started”, totally Rockabilly, and paid the way. Speaking of Pink, Kat’s group opened for her in Hamburg last summer. Best of luck to all my side dishes and May we play together often in 2006.
