Howard While Skempton (born 31 October 1947) is an English composer, pianist, and accordionist. Since the late 1960s, when he helped to organise the Scratch Orchestra, he has been associated with the English school of experimental music. Skempton's work is characterised by stripped-down, essentials-only choice of materials, absence of formal development and a strong emphasis on melody. The musicologist Hermann-Christoph Müller has described Skempton's music as "the emancipation of the consonance".

Hoewel zijn muziek dat niet laat horen was hij eind jaren 60 betrokken bij het en werd hij in verband gebracht met experimentele 20e-eeuwse klassieke muziek. Howard componeert in een muziekstijl die te vergelijken is met de naïeve kunst in de schilderkunst. Het is ontdaan van allerlei versieringen en ook compositietechnieken uit de klassieke muziek uit de 20e eeuw lijken aan hem voorbijgegaan.
