Sean Healy Presents An Intimate Acoustic Evening With Howard Jones On Saturday, February 4, At The Normandie Casino

LOS ANGELES (NORMANDIE CASINO) - Howard Jones was one of the defining figures of mid-'80s synth-pop. Jones' music merged the technological sound of new wave with the late-'60s hippie-pop. Jones racked up a string of hits in the mid- and late '80s before he retreated into being a cult figure in the '90s.

Regarded by many as one of the most influential of the artists that emerged from the UK in the eighties, Jones has particular credibility in the world of dance music where he is regarded as a synthesizer and programming pioneer.

His latest album 'Revolution of the Heart' reflects the new twenty-first century Howard Jones. However, the classic Jones melodic song writing is still central to all the tracks particularly on tracks such as 'Respected' and 'Just Look at You Now'.

Howard Jones has proved that he is one of the most talented writers and performers out there. His independent attitude and his ability and willingness to take risks ensure that he continues to operate on the cutting edge of today's music.
