Anthony Howell is at the forefront of his craft, an exceptional banjo player who not only pays great respect to the traditions of Bluegrass music, but also has a keen eye for the future. His playing demonstrates the highest level of technical prowess, played with the taste and refinement one might hope to see in a player many times his age.Elderly Instruments Lansing, MI
After watching him perform at Bluegrass First Class in 2020, I was quite impressed with his remarkable ability to play multiple instruments with such fluidity. Anthony has his own unique style, and is constantly stretching his creative boundaries and influences in the genre.Milton Harkey Mrh Productions IBMA Founding Member
