Honeysuckle

• Americana
• Folk
• Progressive

Honeysuckle is a progressive folk act that blends older influences and traditional instrumentation with modern effects and inspiration.

Written as a cathartic release, Honeysuckle’s latest release, Phoenix, is a rumination on the impossible to capture, fluid trials of grief. An attempt to capture a small part of the enormity of loss in all the little moments, like reaching for the phone, only to remember that there’s no longer someone on the other end. An incantation, a reminder, a spark in what can seem like never ending darkness. We all carry grief with us, and in writing this song I tried to do what I could to make it just a little lighter, if only for a moment.

Comprised of Holly McGarry and Chris Bloniarz, this upstate NY based band can frequently be found performing across the country. Honeysuckle has performed at Newport Folk Festival, Lollapalooza, Mountain Jam, Americanafest, Otis Mountain Get Down, and Audiotree. Awards include Americana Artist of the Year (2019) and Folk Artist of the Year (2018) at the Boston Music Awards, in addition to having been nominated every year since 2016. NPR named Honeysuckle one of the “Top 10 bands of 2016 So Far.”
