"Howie Day"

Howie Day is a singer, songwriter who is signed to sony BMB music entertainment. Howie was born Howard Kern Day in Brewer, Maine on January 15,1981. Howie started with music when he was five after his mom brought him a piano to play with. As he got older he started his solo career off in 1990 and became known for extensive touring and in-consert use of samplers and effect pedals. Howie Day's parents names are unknown however, they were apart of Howie discovering music and how to use his instruments to enhance his career. When his mother discovered that he could play the music from televsion advertisements she enrolled him into piano classes. Before Howie started his singing career he attended school at Brewer High School (Wikimedia Foundations Inc., Nov 18. 2012). Day is most famous for his songs "Collide" from the movie the Perfect Man's soundtrack and "She Says" from his album Stop The World Now. Currently Howie Day is working on focusing more on his music career by writing more songs. So far in Howie's career he has not received any awards. I like Howie Day his music is different from many artists that are known. Personally, my favorite song by him is "Collide". Howie Day's music is good and worth listening to.
