I became
aware of Honeygirl through following Jesse Valenzuela and Scott Hessel of the
Gin Blossoms. This makes sense, as Honeygirl contains Scott Johnson, also of
the Gin Blossoms, paired up with singer Kira Brown. One of my favorite things
about this is when they refer to Johnson as "Honeyboy". Anyway, I
wanted to give the band a look.
It has been
a little bit difficult in that right now Honeygirl appears to be more a gig
band, so there is not a lot of recorded music available. What there is often
cuts off abruptly. The only really good recording of "Writings on the
Wall", but you can still hear enough to know that it is not the only good
song.
There is
some nice variety. "Writings on the Wall" sounds very country, but I
liked it. "Beg. Me." turns a lot funkier. "I Got You"
would probably still be considered country, but it seems like it could have
crossover appeal.
So it's not
a lot to go on, but I still wanted to write about them because I do think they
would put on a good show, and someone who reads this may get a chance to go see
them. Honeygirl is based in Phoenix, and most gigs seem to be in that
area.
If they do
record more, I will check it out.
