ABOUT HOSS HOWARD:
Hoss Howard spent many summers in eastern Missouri as a child. He attended Windsor School in Jefferson County for a few years before returning back to Arkansas, but still has several local ties to this area. Many family members still live in and around St. Louis.

"This is still one of my homes to me. I love coming back and seeing old friends and family, doing shows and just hangin' out. When "Mikey T" (Mike Thomas, KFAV Program Director) asked me if we would be interested in doing this.... It was a no brainer. I love to give back to people and when it is in an area that you once called home, it makes it even more special. The great people of Lincoln County got hit very hard this year with rain and floods as well as several other communities in northern Missouri and Iowa and they need all of us to step up as friends and help them out."

Hoss’ debut single “Twang Thang” was released to radio in July of this year. Since its release, Twang Thang has JUMPED from its debut at 188 on Music Row to 86 and climbing. The album, “Country On Octane” (Spectra Records), is available at outlets (I-Tunes, Rhapsody, Amazon, Target and Best Buy) now. You can also visit the website for the album and great Hoss merchandise. Additional information about Hoss Howard can be found at: Please visit www.hosshoward.com or www.myspace.com/hosshoward.
