Howlin' Hobbit -- the Capsule Biography

Howlin' Hobbit has been playing music and singing since grade school. That was somewhere back in the dark ages.

Howlin' plays a variety of instruments, but his main "axes" nowadays are ukulele and harmonica. He's starting to throw in a bit of melodica as well.

Over the years Howlin' has played guitar and harmonica with several groups including Peanut Envy, Loose Livin', and Blues Plate Special. He's played washboard with Dog Mafia, the Emerald City Jug Band and Patsy Fuller, another busker (from the U.K.), and was featured in that capacity (as well as vocals and harmonica) on her CD 'Twixt Pike & Pine.

In addition to his solo efforts Howlin' is once again busking at the Pike Place Market, the Ballard Sunday Market, and other locations in Seattle and also plays with his band, Snake Suspenderz. Check out their site for upcoming gigs.
