Greg Howe â born in New York City, New York on December 8, 1963 â is a hard rock guitarist and composer. He began his career playing clubs on the East Coast shortly after he left high school.

He released his self-titled solo debut album in 1988, but reconvened with his brother and formed the hard rock band Howe II. After two albums â High Gear (1989) and Now Hear This (1991) â the band split and Greg Howe resumed his solo career. Heâs released a total of nine solo albums that have revealed an artist of great depth, exploring a mixture of classic hard rock and jazz fusion.
