Funny, rick; my wife was with me when I saw honeyhoney and liked them fine, too–and for what they sounded like and how well they performed. Her fellow frontman (a guy) was pretty good at what they do too. Just sayin’..My scale may not be your scale..

Barry said: “Note: An Americana act to watch—the band honeyhoney, recently relocated to Nashville from the West Coast, the most engaging act I’ve seen this decade that builds on the country picking meets punk musical ideas of the mid-1990s, and with musical chops that match or exceeds many of the bands of that day.”

I see that Suzanne Santo has cast her siren’s spell over yet another unsuspecting male listener! (lol) That gal oozes sex appeal darn near on the level of Marilyn Monroe and captivates the attention of those around her in a similar fashion. One of their songs was recently featured on an episode of the new “Vegas” TV series, so at least they now have enough money to survive! Now if they just quit using those potty mouth words in their lyrics…

Moving the IBMA awards show from the Ryman is definitely the biggest downside to the Raleigh move
