Northern Ca (2004 – present)

This Northern Ca group was formed in 2004 by Ethan Miller of Comets on Fire with Ian Gradek. John Moloney (of Sunburned Hand of the Man) joined the group to record the first album, self titled and released by Birdman Records. This has caught comparisons with the early Grateful Dead and the ear of label impresario Rick Rubin.

Upon Moloney’s departure in 2006 the group was recreated to record “Magnificent Fiend”, co-released by Birdman and American Records in 2008. This group included Mike Jackson, Ethan Miller, Ian Gradek, Joel Robinow (guitarist from Drunk Horse) and Garett Goddard and at various times during tour and the recording Eli Eckert (guitarist and singer of Drunk Horse) and Brad Truax.

Howlin Rain are currently dug deep into rehearsals that have spanned the entire year of 2009 and will result in their 3rd album due in 2010 with the third incarnation of the band, including Ethan Miller on guitars and vocals, Joel Robinow on keys, horns, guitar and vocals, Raj Ojha on drums, and Cyrus Comiskey on bass guitar.

    saw these guys open for the Queens of the Stone Age, had a great sound in 2007 live. Excited to hear this new album.

    Yeah, each album's great. The self-titled sounded like it was recorded in a barn (I mean that as a compliment!) and was a good ol' time, even if it had a few excesses -- luckily those were smoothed out on Magnificent Fiend. TRW sounds like the band distilling their music through 70s AOR and acid rock, and the sound of 'em kicking back and enjoying the sprawl is amazing. That cover of "Collage" is the best one I've ever heard, too.

    The new album is beautiful. Just went through the whole discography today, and what a maturity in sound. The original S/T LP is still freaking amazing, and Magnificent Fiend is still one of the best releases of the last decade, and the two EPs are still standouts, but man, what an amazing illustration of growth and change, yet keeping über-quality and never missing a beat. I think I just gave myself a boner.
