All Over the Map

Dory Honey here. This summer has us playing all over the USA like some warped Where’s Waldo wandering minstrels. The Honey Brothers kicked off our first shows since coming out of the studio with spate of rad festival gigs beginning with the inaugural Wanderlust Festival. We loaded in by tram to the top of Squaw Valley for the new Music/Yoga festival that excelled in good vibes and physical beauty (both the landscape and the people-scape). We shared the stage with favorites such as Andrew Bird, Broken Social Scene, Kaki King, Sonya Kitchell, and Amanda Palmer (who joined us on stage for a rousing yet curious “We Are The Champions”). (New Music Exchange). You can rock harder at 9,000 feet because the air is thinner. This festival is sure to be sold out next year… so be advised!

We rode the plane back east with half the performers, singing “American Pie.“ Then off to All Points West, where I was delighted by Vampire Weekend and The National (oddly, both bands have people who went to the same college as us Honey Brothers), and most of us slogged through the sumptuous mud in the shadow of the Statue of Liberty. As soon as our set was over we had leave for Osheaga in Montreal. We encountered Fleet Foxes and Arctic Monkeys, at the Canadian Border crossing station at 9 in the morning. I haven’t seen so many quiet, bearded, rockers in a linoleum tiled waiting room in my entire life. If we only had our friends in The Giraffes and we could have had our very own indie rock zoo.

Montreal was my favorite show of the sojourn. We played in the most wonderful deluge, to lovely, spirited people. Beforehand our manager reassured us we wouldn’t get electrocuted playing in the rain, which helped us enjoy playing in what was effectively one gigantic communal shower. As it was my bandmate DS’s hometown, he made sure we warmed up with some good food - Schwartz’s - and we made sure we got lost in the old city in search of French brunch. These were our first shows in a while, and were thrilled be what people had to say. (Montreal Gazette).

Now we’re getting geared up for Seattle’s Bumbershoot in September and West Coast Tour (Interview in NO DEPRESSION), AND RECORDING A NEW RECORD!!!

Until next time, pardner,
