About Me

OK, then.
Plenty of "goings on" going on behind the scenes with us right now. We'll keep posting the details here, so watch this space...
For now here's some quick answers to some questions we've been getting:
1. Yes, The Howl has a new line-up. Brooks Milgate on Piano/Organ and Duncan Arsenault on Drums.
2. We're putting together a tour for this Fall, but yes The Howl will be doing some local dates before then.
More soon. End transmission.
Thank you all,
The Howl 5-27-08

"For those who haven't heard The Howl yet, brace yourself." -Worcester Magazine
"Megahorn Breakdown Suite is a raw, riff-heavy return to real rock that treads the same ground as did the blues re-workings of early Stones and Zeppelin." -An Honest Tune
"Big, brawny sound...The Howl's roots run deep, from 90s grunge through punk-era grind to 60s psychedelia -Boston Magazine
New Orleans-style rhythms, and rave-up guitar licks...a rock & roll edge and a psychedelic sense of adventure -Worcester Telegram & Gazette
