Howie Day.: Ark

Ark 316 S. Main, Ann Arbor

Folk-rock singer-songwriter from Bangor, Maine, known for his emotionally direct lyrics, melodic inventiveness, and lively, passionate vocals. In his live shows, Day employs digital loops to create elaborate instrumental arrangements and harmonies. “The term ‘one man band’ comes to mind, but his live incarnation is really so much more than that,” writes Glide Magazine. “Day’s grasp of the musical veil and reveal is uncanny.” Opener: Max Bartos, a young NYC folk-rock singer-songwriter. $35.
