Buffalo Olde Brewery and Buffalo Music Coalition presents Ten Cent Howl on Friday night August 14. The Howl are one of WNY’s greatest bands, featuring the incredible songwriting of Bill Smith. And they are coming out with their new album on May 29th, “Music From the Maple Downs.”
If you’ve seen them before, you know the power of Bill’s songs, along with a selection of inspired cover songs done the Howl way.

B.O.B. has an incredible outdoor space for music and parties.  No Cover Charge!

Back before computers and cell phones and i-everything, when we were still trying to find our way, in the corners and pockets of our country when things were simpler, though always complicated by the human condition, there was music. It spoke of the lives of our families; the older generations before you or me, before Mom and Dad, before Grandma and Grandpa. It was the feeling of the soft blades of grass between your toes on a warm summer day; of a tall cold glass of lemonade after a back-breaking day of work in the hot sun. It was dancing with your best girl under the stars. It was the voice of life and family and experience and love and heartbreak. It is where we come from and who we are; our roots. Generations later, Ten Cent Howl has distilled that distinctly American experience into song once more.

Ten Cent Howl is:
Bill Smith – Vocals, acoustic guitar
