You might remember him as “Dave Howard”. David released a strong string of albums from the 1990s until the twenty-teens, when other matters required his attention. He is now jumping back on the music train, with a retrospective album, fresh performances, and, some new material. David was a mainstay of the vibrant 1990s local coffeehouse scene, and later fronted the Blackout Blues Band and The Shamey Jays. A three-time nominee for the San Diego Music Awards, he has written and performed with A.J. Croce, Berkley Hart, Lisa Sanders, and Joe Rathburn, as well as having his songs covered by a who’s-who of our favorite artists including Gregory Page and Peter Bolland. rupertwatesmusic.com davehoward.bandcamp.com

Éclats d’Âme—“Fragments of the Soul”—captures the essence of human emotion through the timeless works of Beethoven, Chopin, and Liszt. Beethoven’s Appassionata unleashes turbulent passion and drama, while Chopin’s First Ballade offers delicate introspection and lyrical beauty. Liszt’s B Minor Sonata blends virtuosic brilliance with profound depth, expressing a sweeping narrative of struggle and transcendence. Together, these masterpieces reveal the spectrum of the soul’s journey, from anguished conflict to fleeting moments of grace. In this program, each note becomes a voice, each phrase a whisper of the heart’s most intimate desires and longings, broken yet beautifully whole.
