Howie Hooper was an Ottawa Singer Songwriter who passed away due to cancer on May 30th, 2021. 

Howie was an artist who was deeply committed to the craft and process of songwriting. When he learned that he was sick, he started a project. His intention was not to make a profit, but to raise money for cancer research. Sadly, his energy and time ran out before the project could be completed.

There are 5 songs that Howie did manage to finish. Because Howie would have wanted these songs to see the light of day, they are here for you to enjoy.  If you are able and willing to make a donation to cancer research and would like to honor Howie's wishes for the project, here is a link where you can do that  - http://ottawacancer.ca

Thank you so much for listening to these beautiful songs, to bring full circle, Howie's intentions in creating them.
