Eli Howard

Eli Rader Howard isn't just a singer songwriter, he is a storyteller, entertainer, father, husband, and friend. Born and raised in Sapulpa, Oklahoma, now based in North Dallas, Howard grew up in a world where music wasn’t background noise; it was community. Singing gospel in church, swapping songs on porches, singing in choirs, and trading laughs around campfires and fishing
holes taught him that music has the power to connect people, ease burdens, and make joy contagious.

Howard’s music mix heart and humor, moving easily from soul-stirring ballads to rowdy
barn-burners. With a sound that blends gospel soul, Red Dirt grit, and rock-and-roll edge, he’s
brought his warm, sincere voice to stages like Cain’s Ballroom, Billy Bobs Texas, and Stillwater’s
Tumbleweed alongside Red Dirt and Texas Country greats.

In 2022, he released his debut album Heading Back to Tulsa, eleven originals rooted in honesty
and sharp narrative. Now, he’s preparing his next project, a new album featuring 11 new
originals, acoustic cuts, and collaborations with incredible artists in the Red-dirt and Texas
Country music scene.

My mission is to create music that brings people together through love, laughter, and
connection. I believe a great show should feel like friends gathering around a campfire — a
place where joy, storytelling, and honest songs remind us to celebrate life. Music is meant to be
fun, heartfelt, and real, and my purpose is to share that spirit every time I write, sing, or step on
stage
