HoneyrootThe Sun Will Come [album]
“As
I played Honeyroot’s The Sun Will Come,
I was instantly whisked
away to endless sunny
beaches and wooden
porches; sipping from
long, cool drinks and
dancing barefoot...”
SO I WAS NOT SURPRISED TO HEAR it is presented as "A must for beach parties
to dance floors across the globe".
Described as "a
beguiling mix of lush synths and subtle beats"
by Music Week and "A
modern day soul record in the cutest disguise you'll
ever come across"
by M8 Magazine — you get the picture.
Daniel Griffiths, Editor of Future Music, one of the UK's leading music production
magazines, adds: "Glenn Gregory is best known as the front man for Heaven 17
(the band behind the hit Temptation) but for the last few years he's been one
half of Honeyroot and they've just made one of the best albums of the year."
Glenn and music partner Keith Lowndes inject an intense amount of energy into
the album The Sun Will Come, side by side with a relaxed, calming influence
that conjures up the raw roots of music with an overriding electronic twist
and an established bass.
The Publicity Machine says: "Today's most successful artists have one thing
in common — the ability to re-invent themselves and challenge their audiences
— and Glenn Gregory has done just that: he has evolved into the chief writer,
producer and performer in Electronic outfit, Honeyroot."
The second single from the album, Where I Belong, fuses laid back country
melodies with upbeat ska. Given the track's Country Music leanings, Glenn and
Keith were keen to get a bona fide country singer for the vocal, so they tracked
down acclaimed Nashville country star Kim Richie, well known on the international
country scene for her "Glimmer" album. Her floating vocal beautifully wraps
up this optimistic piece of dance, pop perfection.
With comparisons to such artists as Air, Moby, Massive Attack, Morcheeba, Daft
Punk and Portishead, Honeyroot are now poised firmly to follow in their footsteps
of success.
• On sale now on Eco Friendly Independent
label Just Music, The Sun Will Come is being hailed as one of the best
albums of 2007.
