“Bigger Sounds…” was made in howie’s college dorm room in the spring of 2001. The band had only begun writing and playing original material a few months earlier, but there was already a feeling that a record would be good to put out for people. 150 copies of the master were burned onto CD-Rs, packaged with home-printed labels (thanks Allen Gilbert) and sold in about 8 weeks. The album captures the earliest aural picture of howie&scott – entirely acoustic, ranging from a bit folky to a bit progressive, elements of earth and space united in a different way of rocking.
