Christy Howard is a Detroit-based singer/songwriter whose diverse musical background, combined with her smooth and sultry vocal style, gives her a unique sound. She sings with the soul of the Gospel, the harmonies of Bluegrass, the rowdiness of a Mississippi juke-joint, and the finesse of an Austin Blues Club. Her vocals sound like a blend of June Carter Cash and Bonnie Raitt. Her original music ranges from Chicago-Style Blues and Blues-Rock, to Outlaw-Country and Southern-Rock that sounds like Buddy Guy meets Lynyrd Skynrd or Hank III.
