Joel Michael Howard was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, but now calls New York home. In terms of personal interests, Howard tells us that he “loves writing and recording music, spending time with his significant other, teaching kids about math, and talking on the phone.” June of this year will mark the release of his second full length album, 6th Grade, Part B.
The album was recorded in The Catskills at 6th Grade, Part B, a new recording studio created by Joel Howard and Ian Hersey (ex-Rubblebucket) in an old school house built in 1901. Hersey produced the album and musicians Bryan Bisordi (drums) and Mark Stewart (bass/keys) joined in.
You can find the lyrics to “Lies” below:
I never felt that I was there with you now
I never felt that I could know someone elseWe don’t belong inside this dreamBefore I knew it we had lost our way outBe the lies that you tell meNo matter what you do I don’t believe youNo matter what you say I don’t have a clueWe always knew you were not thereBut knowing something doesn’t mean that you careBe the lies that you tell meI never loved you for youBefore I loved you I knewI’d never know who I hadBut I could know it would lastBe the lies that you tell me
