DJ Mighty Howard - FastForward

Mighty Howard
"Jah Soldier"
(Mighty Works Music - 2010)
Mighty Howard was born Howard Bridges in the United States. Like many other artists, his first encounter with music was through the church as a child. After travelling around extensively, he now lives in Hamburg where he works as a DJ and performs as a solo artist, with bands and as an MC/vocalist with many different sound systems, including I-Livity I-Fi and Roots Commandment. He also whipped up the massives across Europe as MC for Dubmatix and recently shared a stage with Nina Hagen. His debut single, “Run From Di Thunder”, was released on Planet Dread Records. The timeless root tune was produced by Pensi (Ire Hi-Fi) on a riddim played by Andreas Brikalin. “Irieness”, his second single, was released by Irie Ites Music and features Howard’s gentle vocals singing a positive message on top of Dubmatix’s "Rough Out" riddim. In November 2009, he teamed up with Dubmatix and booked some time at Aldubb's Planet Earth Studio in Berlin. In a three-day session the three musicians recorded the Berlin Sessions (Irie Ites Music), without having previously worked on ideas. The result is impressive proof of the congenial synergies that were at work here, showing that Howard is capable of writing pretty damn good lyrics in next to no time. The CD features the tracks “Warriors Call”, “Mount Zion Trad” and “Rock The Night”, presenting the many sides of Howard: at times pugnacious and full of hope, at others romantic and soft. The collaboration with Aldubb, one of Germany’s premier reggae and dub producers, became more intense over the following months. He penned the riddims for “Jah Soldier”, “Mother Earth”, “Nah Fear” and “Pon Jah Road”. “Hazard” was put down on a dub version which Aldubb mixed for the Senior Allstars. It doesn’t get more mystical than this track… Two further riddims came from the french sound system Livity Access. Howard’s lyrics – infused with deep consciousness – sit on top of the roots riddims with incredible sensitivity. The album finishes with a bonus acoustic version of “Home”, played and sung live for a Freies Radio Kassel radio show. Reduced to a bare minimum of vocals and guitar, this is Howard at his most intimate and authentic. A beautiful, deeply moving finish for a truly multifaceted album! By Karsten Frehe

Born in 1978 in Denver, USA, Howard Booker Bridges was brought up in a particularly "musical" family, but after discovering the power of music at an early age, the urge to share the positive vibes and energy he felt through music became unstoppable. By choosing to study music theory (trombone, choir), theater (production and acting), studio engineering, radio, and film production, Howard made the commitment to gathering the knowledge needed to build a career in the arts.
Born in 1978 in Denver, USA, Howard Booker Bridges was brought up in a particularly "musical" family, but after discovering the power of music at an early age, the urge to share the positive vibes and energy he felt through music became unstoppable. By choosing to study music theory (trombone, choir), theater (production and acting), studio engineering, radio, and film production, Howard made the commitment to gathering the knowledge needed to build a career in the arts.

During his teenage years, with an already growing fascination and passion for music, Howard was mesmerized by reggae artists like Toots and the Maytals and The Abyssinians; from there on, it was simply love. Howard, pushed by sheer passion and love for the music, followed his curiosity for the culture originating from Jamaica by studying the history of Jamaican people. Nowadays, Mighty Howard has dedicated a large portion of his time to studying world culture and building up his cross-genre vinyl collection with many rarities and sounds spanning from ska all the way to modern roots and dub.

After deciding to leave the USA to start his career in Europe, Mighty was soon given the opportunity to perform live at the Knockengorroch Festival in Scotland on the Mungo's HiFi Soundsystem Stage and has since featured in many venues and festivals, working alongside many talented artists in reggae music. In 2009, Mighty Howard performed as the opener for THE WAILERS in Hamburg Fabrik and, in the same year, performed many times on stage with Nina Hagen. In the same year, Howard toured twice with Canadian reggae producer Dubmatix, spending a month performing in France and the second tour traveling all over Europe. Studio collaborations and recordings soon followed with releases from Webcam Hifi, Livity Access, Irie Ites Germany, Ire Hifi, Soulfire Hifi, One Drop Berlin, and the current killer track, LION PAW, produced by Earthikal Towa Sound System and mixed by Vibronics. In 2013, Mighty Howard started a band called THE MOTIVATORS, which celebrated a three-week tour through Poland, performing songs from his debut album, JAH SOLDIER. In 2019 he released, CHANTING THE WORD, an album dedicated to and featured vocals from his daughter Kissa, which was recorded with the SAM RAGGA BAND (Sleng Tang Band), a backing band who’s live stage program brought Mighty in collaborative performances with vocalists like Seanie T from England (Dub Pistols) and Aza Lineage from Jamaica. Also being active as a promoter, he managed to secure space in a number of German venues to run his own dub event under the brand "Solidarity Dub." He has received support from influential music journalists and promoters, and he has hosted a wide number of producers and selectors as guests.

Mighty Howard is an extremely versatile DJ, vocalist, trombonist, percussionist, drummer, guitarist, and melodist who truly loves music and enjoys bringing good vibes to any crowd he performs for. His musical mentors are such well-loved artists as Akae Beka, the Twinkle Brothers, and Burning Spear. Mighty Howard is currently working on building his own studio in which to produce his third album, ROOTS EVOLUTION, as well as the ability to produce his own Riddims and explore the other genres of music that have always interested him. Howard is planning to continue traveling the world, spreading a message of unity and equality through his music and art.
