Howl Owl Howl came together in 2019 when Gorman organized a benefit show for his child's school. He invited Rucker to join and Mills came along. They began developing songs as a band in 2021. R.E.M. singer Michael Stipe named the group.
Their first single, "My Cologne," was inspired by singer Ariana Grande naming a perfume "R.E.M." in honor of her song of the same name. Their not-yet-completed debut album features the songs “Fear,” “Doesn’t Matter Now,” “See Me Now,” “Window to My Soul,” “Leftover,” and “Dog of Life.” On November 3, 2025, the band played their first show in Indianapolis, as part of a North American mini-tour throughout the month, visiting other cities such as Chicago, Washington, D.C., Boston, New York, and Atlanta, accompanied by guitarist/keyboardist Rich Gilbert and guitarist Sol Philcox-Littlefield.
