| NEW SONG PART OF "THE DEATH OF MICHIGAN" - We had our song Hard To Find selected to be part of an art exhibit
at Kendall College of Art and Design, which is going from now through next Friday, November 13th. The exhibit is called
The Death of Michigan and is based on how local artists have been influenced by the state of the economy in
Michigan. Here is a copy of
the song for you. Let us know how you like it: Hard To Find. Also, here is a link to
the college: THE DEATH OF MICHIGAN

| NEWS - SHOW COMING UP
We have a show coming up in a couple of weeks in Grand Rapids. It will be the last show we play for awhile so
we can work on recording the new album (more to follow on that below). It’s all ages, in the afternoon, there’s
a bunch of bands playing and it should be real cool. I believe it is a fund raiser also. It's SAT OCT 18th
starting at 4pm (not sure what time we'll be playing). See the flyer below or click on the link at the bottom
of the page.
PUBLISHING CO NAME CONTEST
I need your help on something. I am starting a music publishing company for Brother Howe and I need a name.
But not just any name. Music publishing company names need to be fairly unique because there can’t be another
one with the same (or even similar) name in the whole wide world. If your song gets played on the radio in
Timbuktu, the royalties get paid to the publishing company and the songwriter, so if there is another publishing
company with a similar name, they could get your money.
To give you an idea, one of my favorite music publishing names is the company that publishes Soundgarden’s music,
which is You Make Me Sick I Make Music Publishing Co. So I would like to come up with something using Howe.
I have to submit five names to BMI and they will pick the one to use. Here’s what I’ve come up with so far:
Howe Publishing Co. (real original I know)
Howe Ya Doin’ Publishing
So I would love your ideas, the more creative the better. If one of the companies chosen is yours, I’ll come up
with some sort of cool prize for you, like a free cd or t-shirt, iTunes gift card, backstage passes, free trip
to Las Vegas to see us play, I don’t know…
NEW ALBUM
Just to give you a little more of an update, we are working on recording our next album and I’m really excited
about it. Hopefully I’ll be putting some rough mixes together for you guys to listen to in the next month or so and get your feedback. Alrighty then, I hope you have a great day.
