Hello, my name is Iain Howie
In 2020, after nearly a decade of producing house in Vancouver's underground electronic music scene, I shifted my focus to on songwriting. The results were revealed in my debut album Patterns released in May 2021. The album attempted to blend the tension building of house music with songwriting.
While the themes in my music are quite personal, I believe a lot of them are universal. I'm singing about love, loss, anxiety and the pursuit of happiness.
I hope my songs can provide some sort of solace for people that feel the same way I do.
Cheers,
Iain
