About Me |
|
Playing @ the Cornerstone Cafe in Fernwood / Apr.27, 2007. Directed by Gordy Howe. My name is Geoff. I play guitar. I sing. I am in many bands. Some of them are: Smidgen, Lemonshifter, The Tom Glenne 5.5, and one with Eric Hogg that is currently unnamed. Victoria, BC is my home, and I am an open-mic veteran. I had a live showcase called "The Geoff Howe Special", and that lasted nearly a year...but now thats over. You can now usually find me at the Fernwood Inn(Thursday nights), The Cornerstone Cafe(Saturday nights), and sometimes Ocean Island Backpacker's Inn(Wednesday nights). I'm starting to do more full solo gigs, so look out for me and my guitar, playing what I call HARD FOLK. I am also working on an album of the same title. It's coming along, at a pace. See you soon. |
