Big Plain House Concerts

Steve arrived at our house last year, spilling out of a pickup truck with a pack of dogs, a guitar and a hat. In the only outdoor show we’ve had, he gently and efficiently drew everyone into his wry affectionate songs holding us spellbound as the night fell. He’s back again, with his brand of music that we’ll describe as country blues, but, if you ask him yourself, might be described with a whole different set of words. Come listen.

Singer/songwriter and canvas artist Steve Howard has been performing his original music in bands, trios, duos in New Mexico, Colorado and Texas for some thirty odd years, and, for past three years, as a solo act in and around Taos, New Mexico. Steve’s unique acoustic sound evolved from many musical influences and might best be described as a popular rock influenced Americana with
a backdrop of C&W.

“I’m traveling Kansas now singing and performing my new CD ‘Last Call at Lascaux’……for any Kansans willing to take a chance on a singer they have surely never heard of, they should come on out and give it a listen….life and live music is a gamble!!”

John Steven Howard

“If you have ever wanted to hear a performer whose songs and lyrics come straight from the heart…listen to John Steven Howard”.
Stewart Herd - Taos New Mexico

“Howard’s haunting melodies, along with his soft touch acoustic guitar style, reveal the temperament of a poet. He also throws in some edgier tunes surrounding his wry social commentary”
Stan Herd - Lawrence Kansas
