Howe has toured nationally, placed first in a country battle of the bands, played huge concert halls and pitched songs in Nashville. She’s played radio shows, television shows, and has had her music featured in film. The list of people Howe has opened for reads like a who’s who of alt-country music: Todd Snider, Jason Ringenberg, Paul Thorn, Stacey Earle, The Be Good Tanyas, Jerry Douglas, Billy Joe Shaver, Kim Richey, Holly Williams, The Wood Brothers, Tim Krekel, Rosie Flores and Tommy Womack, to name a few.
Ever the explorer, Howe has delved into children's music, spiritual music and environmental activism and has drawn quite a bit of national praise for her efforts. She has garnered accolades from the usual Americana music supporters like No Depression Magazine and WXPN in Philadelphia while at the same time receiving kudos from Al Gore and winning an E-chievement award from the E-town Radio Show.
Be Good is Howe’s first album since 2007’s I Love Britney Spears. It is Howe’s sixth solo release and the eighth album she has produced. (She produced the compilation album Heidi’s One Night Stand as a benefit for the Musician’s Emergency Relief Fund as well as the sonaBLAST! Records release Louisville Lullabies, which benefitted The Home of the Innocents.)
Today, Howe still professes to favor intimate shows over flashy, larger ones. To testify, she says that the songwriter showcase she hosted for more than five years in Louisville remains “one of her fondest memories.” Howe has always thrived on the easy conversation that seems to happen between performer and audience when she takes the stage.
