One of the most engaging performers on the New England folk circuit, Howie Newman combines music, comedy and audience participation to provide a truly unique entertainment experience. His amusing compositions are up-tempo and catchy, and he keeps things lively with funny between-songs banter and short comedy bits (there is also a smattering of serious songs).

Although he is best known for writing baseball parodies (e.g. "Blasted in the Bleachers"), Newman's songs cover a broad range of user-friendly subjects. Topics include television commercials, getting up in the morning, cell phones, middle age dating, intergalactic garbage collection and more. And the material is totally clean, suitable for all ages. His first full-length album, Trust Me, You'll Like It, was released in May 2006. A full-time musician from 1973-83, he took an 18-year hiatus before returning to the folk scene in 2001. Howie's End of the Curse Tour is coming to a theater near you (check out the schedule). Click here for the May 2009 EOC newsletter.
