Album Notes
Don't be hornswaggled, Britpop fans; even though young singer-songwriter Howie Day may sound like he's descended from the lineage of tortured, melodic British souls like Badly Drawn Boy, Coldplay, Radiohead, etc., he's actually a Yank. Regardless of national origin, Day managed to make a name for himself opening up for both US and UK acts and releasing a 2000 debut album that was later reissued when he got a major-label deal. Though this five-song EP (plus bonus DVD) is Day's first recording for Epic, there's no big-budget overproduction here. Wisely, things are kept sparse, spotlighting Day's fragile, emotive voice, and highly tuneful, gentle songs. The two live songs that close THE MADRIGALS showcase the unique solo approach Day employs in concert; inspired by Joseph Arthur, he uses digital delays to set up sonic elements to play over, all just using his own voice and guitar.

      Howie Day The Madrigals E.P. - The Best Album I Own
    Review created: 04/24/06

    In 2000, Day independently released his self-financed debut, Australia. Impressed by the 30,000 albums he sold simply by word of mouth, Epic Records signed Day and began distributing the album. A year later Australia has sold over 100,000 copies. In addition, Day released the Madrigals EP, a collection of live tracks and demos that were produced in Howie's living room.

    My brother introduced me to Howie Day over a year ago. He showed me the DVD of Howie playing "Ghost" in his living room and I was addicted.

    If you have not seen this video or heard Howie play your truly missing out. I am a very ecleptic listener but have a soft place for this album. All the songs are phenominal and if for nothing else I would have paid retail for the DVD of him playing the "Ghost" song.

    You honestly cant go wrong buying this CD/DVD!
