If you did not already know... It was in 1983 that Howard Jones 1st burst
upon the contemporary music scene with his very English song writing,
pioneering synthesizers and thought provoking lyrics. He set out his
manifesto in his very 1st single entitled:- 'New Song'. The
lyrics called on the listener to challenge their preconceived ideas, to see
both sides and 'throw off your mental chains'. New Song was
recently used in a pivotal scene in 'Breaking Bad' where Aaron
Paul's character Jessie Pinkman questions if he wants to:- 'play by
the rules'. New Song peaked at number 3 in the UK singles charts.
Along with 'New Song', The 1st 2 albums:- 'Humans Lib'
and 'Dream into Action', brought Howard a host of hits
including:- 'Things Can Only Get Better', 'What is
Love?', 'Pearl In The Shell', 'Like to Get To
know You Well', 'Hide And Seek' (performed at Live
Aid), 'Look Mama' and not forgetting 'No One Is To
Blame', which reached No.1 in the US.
If that was not to big an achievement for you, well, Howard has now sold
over 8 million albums across the globe and is one of a select group of
British artists who have comprehensively 'broken America'.
Howard Jones solo shows are an intimate trip through Howard's 30 year music
