There are few bands that move me to the extent that Eric Howden’s music does. His music is meditative and full of power and this interview will leave you with much to think about. Tune in now on cjam.ca or catch the archive up using the link in bio 🙂

Raised by Swans came into my life when I needed it most. The ethereal melodies and poignant lyrics resonated deeply, offering solace and understanding during times when nothing else seemed to help. As the years passed, I eagerly awaited new music, yet a part of me feared that the magic might fade, that new songs wouldn’t touch me as profoundly as the old ones did. But I was wrong.

With each new release, Eric’s incredible artistry shines through, proving that his music’s timeless touch remains undiminished. His latest album is a testament to his enduring talent and ability to connect with listeners on a deeply emotional level. Once again, Eric has saved me with his music, offering a sense of comfort and healing that words alone cannot convey.

Among the tracks on this new album, “Star Shells” stands out as my favorite. Its haunting beauty and introspective lyrics encapsulate everything I love about Raised by Swans.
