Howard Gripp

Christian Artist

Howard Gripp is a Wisconsin-based artist who has transitioned from a rock 'n' roll background to fully embrace the Christian Contemporary/Rock genre. Known for delivering strong, inspirational messages, Howard's music is designed to touch souls and reassure listeners that they are not alone. Though new to the Christian music scene, Howard brings years of musical experience and a fresh perspective to his work. His listeners have praised his songs for their emotional depth, with comments such as, "My eyes and heart were misty," "Very powerful! Your songs could save lives!" and "When I Pray has touched my life."

Howard's musical journey began at the age of six when he started playing the drums. He continued to pursue music throughout his school years, forming the band "Flight" at 16 and performing in bars by the same age. This marked the start of his musical career, which included playing in rock bands and recording a CD titled 'Stinger' with a Los Angeles record company. However, a transformative experience with Jesus inspired Howard to turn away from secular music and embrace a more meaningful path in the Christian Contemporary/Rock genre.

Recording in Nashville, Howard is working on completing his album with renowned producers. This marks a new beginning in what promises to be a lasting career in music. Howard released his first two songs in late 2023 and early 2024 and has recently finished recording a five-song EP set for release in late summer 2024. His music addresses real-life challenges and encourages listeners to find strength and resilience through faith.

In his emerging career, Howard has already achieved notable accolades. He finished in the Top 10 for three consecutive quarters in the World Songwriting Awards contest, securing 8th place with "Stories in The Bible," 3rd place with "He Rescued Me," and 3rd place with "Father Help Me" (to be released soon). Additionally, he finished in the Top 5 of the You God's Music competition. With a commitment to creating music that resonates with listeners on a deep level, Howard Gripp is poised to make a significant impact in the world of Christian music.
