Indie folk artist from Ireland and founding member of Billboard No.1 band We Banjo 3, David Howley has been at the forefront of Irish guitar, banjo and mandolin for over a decade. An award-winning vocalist, he has performed with The Chieftains, Eileen Ivers, Carlos Nunez, Billy Strings, Bela Fleck, Altan, Ajeet and Mumford & Sons, amongst others.
David’s first solo album has been called “a thing of rare beauty” by the Irish Times. The four star review of for Venus commends the album as pointing to “a richly creative period that he has embraced to the full. All of which augurs well for this album’s transition to live performance.”
​Now, David Howley steps into his second album with the release of "Shadow," a song that reimagines the ancient tale of Eurydice and Orpheus. This track dives into the complexities of love and loss, weaving a story that’s both timeless and deeply personal. With its upbeat rhythm and heartfelt lyrics, "Shadow" showcases Howley's knack for pairing profound narratives with spirited melodies. The song promises to draw listeners into a vibrant emotional journey, one that exemplifies his ability to blend mythic storytelling with the raw realities of the human heart.
Recorded in a tiny cabin in the town of Kenmare in County Kerry, Ireland, his new songs resonate with a wide range of audiences, taking them to places undiscovered. With soulful vocals, evocative storytelling, and enchanting melodies, he creates an otherworldly, time-bending magic. Inspired by ancient legends and raw emotions, Howley is a modern poet with traditional chops. Enter his unique musical imagination through indie folk's depths, where the dreamworld and daily life meet.
