Barna Howard is an artist hailing from Portland, Oregon. Born and raised in a quintessential Midwest town, his childhood was filled with pure Americana experiences. However, like many small towns, the charm of his hometown has faded over time. After studying animation and following love to different cities, Barna eventually found himself in the Northwest where he released his critically acclaimed self-titled debut album. His second album, Quite a Feelin', reflects on his relationship with home and captures his deeply personal nostalgia in a universally resonating way.
His youth in Eureka, Missouri was reminiscent of Spielberg's E.T., with baseball cards in bicycle spokes and carefree adventures down Main Street. But as time passed, Eureka lost some of its charm - Main Street changed and kids no longer roamed freely. Ironically, Barna's childhood home was demolished to make way for a Walmart parking lot.
After high school, Barna ventured north to study animation before moving east for love. Eventually making his way to the Northwest with two friends, he sought inspiration and a fresh start. His self-titled debut album captured the contrast between his small town upbringing and big city wanderings. The album gained critical acclaim and underground success after one of its songs featured in the indie film Drinking Buddies.

Barna Howard was born and raised in a quintessential Midwest town. His youth in Eureka, Missouri was pure Americana - the sort of childhood that inspired ET era Spielberg - baseball cards in his bicycle spokes, flying freely down Main Street and through neighbours' backyards. After high school, Howard moved north to study animation in one cold and windy city and then east for love in another. Years later, he blindly followed two friends to the Northwest, crossing the Rockies for the first time, in search of inspiration, opportunity and a fresh start. Barna's self-titled debut chronicled these moves as he struggled with the contrast between his small town upbringing and these big city wanderings. The album was met with critical acclaim and underground success, partly thanks to an opportunely placed song in the hit indie film, Drinking Buddies. One critic even likened him to some "lost genius of the 60's." The songs on Barna Howard's second album, 'Quite A Feelin', ruminate on his relationship with home. Now entrenched in Portland, Oregon, many of the album's tracks immortalise and reflect on the Eureka he once knew, while others focus on the relationships that define his new home out west. Small town life has long been celebrated in country and folk music, but Barna's knack for capturing his own deeply personal nostalgia resonates in a rarely universal way.LP - With Download.
