Is Jeph Howard from the Used real name Jeph?
Jeph Howard (born Jepharee Greg Howard) was born on January 4, 1979 and plays bass guitar for band The Used. A common nickname of his is Jepha. His other co-members of the band include vocalist Bert McCracken and guitarist Quinn Allman. Howard began playing bass when his childhood friend Korby Connell played guitar. Jeph figured that if Korby played guitar, he must pick up bass. Prior to Bert joining The Used, Jeph was the singer, but he prefers to play bass. Jeph listens to all kinds of music – he likes everything from “noise & super screamy metal to hip hop.” He believes that this is partly because his father would play records for him growing up. Jeph lives a vegan lifestyle, and strongly supports PETA, and is featured on their “Save #99” dvd. He does, however, drink alcohol in moderation, & thus he travels on The Used’s “Party Bus” periodically. Sources: http://en.wikipedia.
