Reviews:
Kathy Parsons, Mainlypiano.com: "I think Lichens is Mike Howe’s best album to date. He has garnered a lot of awards and nominations for his first four albums, so be sure to check this one out!" http://www.mainlypiano.com/2015_Reviews/Howe-Lichens.html
RJ Lannan, Zone Music Reporter
"Mike Howe offers an album that continuously sustains a mood of quiet beauty and excitement. Every tune hides this little story. We need just listen and the story unfolds, excites us, calms us but most of all, they satisfy us. Howe is right. No words needed. Just an open mind and ready heart. Highly recommended."
Rated: Very Good+

“For all the musicians that have claimed to pull music from nature, Howe puts them all to shame. Proving that his debut was no flash in the pan, this is an NAC guitarist that has chops and soul to spare and seems to be able to pull inspiration from a very deep well".
