Kay Howl first landed on our radar as the driving force behind the South Western Ontario duo The Oh Chays, who also featured Mike Sugar Authier on guitar, percussion and backing vocals. Known for their upbeat and fun songs, powerful vocals and playful stage banter, the duo were finalists in the 2014 Toronto Blues Society Talent Search and represented Toronto Blues Society at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis in 2015. The Oh Chays may be no more, but the dynamic vocal delivery and fun stage presence lives on as Kay Howl who released her debut album "Pink Trees" earlier this year. "Pink Trees", which was produced with Marty Bak at SLR studios in Windsor ON is a personal and powerful statement - a coming out record, and very much a 'this is who I am' recording. Featuring 11 tracks, it packs quite a punch, and a recording that Kay feels is best appreciated in full album format.
Music: Kay Howl "Whatever", "High On A Woman", "Natural Disaster" and "It Must Have Been Love" (Roxette cover) from "Pink Trees" (2021, Self) CDN.
