'Strike' became Howlin' Bill's sampling of good taste. Their headstrong mix of blues, rockabilly, surf and rock 'n' roll is the musical sum of four factors. Little Chris, Walkin' Winne, Magic Frank and Howlin' Bill are individually more than creditable musicians, but together they achieve what only a few can realize on stage: musical magic. Little Chris' carrying guitar riffs find a solid base in the perfect combination of Walkin' Winne and Magic Frank. Howlin' Bill navigates with his voice and harmonica like an accomplished demagogue through the musical surroundings his band creates.
The catching roots'n roll that these guys play together, already brought them on stages in Germany, France, Sweden and in the furthest corners of the Benelux. On native soil they knew how to charm many music lover, which resulted in a multitude of loyal fans. Everywhere the band passes, they leave a track of blown-away, roots loving individuals, bemused clubowners, elated spectators, howling dogs and even once in a while, a broken heart.
But no matter if their audience consists of eighteen- or eighty-year-olds, young lassies or retired cowboys, always and everywhere, Howlin' Bill and his band throw themselves into it for one hundred and ten percent.

It’s not easy to pin down a band like Howlin' Bill in a few words – it would not do them justice. They mainly perform original songs, with occasionally some carefully chosen covers thrown in the mix for good measure. The Howlin' Bill recipe is a blend of Blues, Rock 'n' Roll, Boogie and Rockabilly. This band travels the Blues Highway, but also dares to wander of the beaten path to explore little know back roads, visiting different styles of Rhythm ‘N' Roots along their journey. There is however always a common denominator present – every song on the set list possesses a high dose of “hip-shaking” content.
In 2009, during a sold-out concert at Belgium’s “Temple Of Rock” venue the “Ancienne Belgique”, Howlin’ Bill recorded an electrifying live album. That night, Howlin’ Bill became larger than live – quite a feat considering the man himself stands six feet five tall – on bare feet. This live album accurately documented an exhilarating performance of pumping roots-based Blues and Rock, with lyrics about good women gone bad, booze, worn-out shoes, and the trials and tribulations of romantic love – in short, the album featured sixteen songs about real life as most people know it.
