Honeybear w/ Colleen Rennison at The Drake Pub

Honeybear is a vintage inspired soul, blues & roots quartet, taking you on an old school road trip through the dusty back roads of American music. While Honeybear is a relatively new band formed in 2023, the 4 band members are old friends and have been playing together in other formations for well over 20 years, crossing paths on tours across Canada, down the West Coast, and beyond. As individual performers, they’ve played at most major Folk and Jazz/Blues festivals in Canada. When the pandemic struck and live music was at a standstill, the 4 friends found themselves jamming outdoors in parks, with amps and PA’s hooked up to jerry rigged motorcycle batteries, just to bask in the joy that is playing live music with like minded souls. Necessity is the mother of invention, etc. The rest is history.

Their debut EP and follow up singles released in 2024/25 have received well over 2.5 Million streams on Spotify and ~100k monthly listeners, and featured on official Spotify Editorial playlists Nu Blue, New Music Friday, Blues Bar and Best Blues of 2024. The band is looking forward to releasing their first full length FACTOR funded album in June 2025.

The concert starts at 7:30 PM.
