Christian Howse is a singer-songwriter from Newfoundland, Canada, making waves in the East Coast music scene. With the release of his sixth album, Break Through (2025), Christian showcases his raw talent and artistic evolution, weaving together distinctive fingerstyle guitar work, evocative lyricism, and bold storytelling. Building on the momentum of his previous album Liminal, which established him as both a songwriter and a social observer, Break Through pushes further with a dynamic, edgier sound. The album’s singles — Marionette, The Gardener, and Aurora Borealis — each highlight new layers of his craft, blending earnest vulnerability with a sharp, contemporary edge. Christian’s artistry has earned him recognition across Canada, including a 2018 Canadian Folk Music Award nomination for Young Performer of the Year, three MusicNL nominations in 2019 (Rising Star, Male Artist of the Year, and Folk/Roots Artist of the Year), and a 2025 MusicNL nomination for his sync placement on Hudson & Rex. With Break Through, he continues to solidify his place as one of Newfoundland’s most compelling voices, drawing listeners in with honesty, grit, and a sound that bridges tradition and modernity.
