about

In August, Cult Love was approached by Paul Howerton, the son of Eugene Howard, to release an album of his late father's for the preservation and distribution of his music. Eugene Howard was a Tulsa artist who in the 80's recorded what could be best described as authentic, all analog synthwave, synthpop, and/or indie rock. Granted, this was before these genres had truly solidified themselves sonically and established themselves in mainstream music discourse. He spent most of his life managing a pool hall and repairing pool tables before passing in 2014.

Eugene Howard was a man who was ahead of his time. What can be found on the album Tricky Dick's Cafe, is the original sound of synth-centric indie music that is so highly sought after in the current 21st century. Artists such as John Maus, Ariel Pink, and Mac Demarco immediately come to mind as contemporaries of the musical torch that artists such as Eugene created. Eugene Howard was a prolific, under recognized Tulsa artist of the 80's whose style can now be seen and heard across the broad musical landscapes and big stages of the 21st century.

We are proud to help archive, preserve, and present the music of Tulsa's, Eugene Howard. Special thanks to Paul Howerton for reaching out and making this possible. RIP Eugene Howard.
