Howie Day

Howie Day

On Tuesday, September 8th, at 6pm you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy an in-store performance and autograph signing by Maine’s own Howie Day at Bull Moose Music at 456 Payne Road in Scarborough.

Due to the space limitations and the anticipated popularity of the event, Bull Moose will be handing out wristbands beginning at 9am to fans who purchase a copy of Howie’s latest CD release, “Sound The Alarm”, which will guarantee them a spot at the event. All others should arrive as early as possible due to the expectation of a large crowd.

One week later, Howie will join Colbie Caillat on a tour of over 30 cities beginning September 15, at The House of Blues in San Diego, California. For those fans in the northeast, the closest Howie will come to the area is New York City at the Roseland Ballroom on October 16, though more dates could be added.

For tickets to the Howie Day and Colbie Caillat Tour, please visit; HDTickets.MusicToday.com
