[Sponsored] These bluesy, brass instrument-wielding blokes are sure to put you in a dancing mood

Fresh from their 2019 Bluesfest appearance, this joyful jazz quintet will grace the stage of legendary music venue the Corner Hotel with southern soul classics and their exciting new two-parter studio album Call It Home: Vol 1 & 2. While you might expect a traditional set from a brass-heavy group with New Orleans jazz influences, experiencing the California Honeydrops live is more like a party than a performance. Expect these energetic fellas to be jumping off the stage and getting groovy with the audience.

The band’s ten-year anniversary will give them more reason to celebrate, as they perform smoothly-layered songs like ‘Don’t Let the Green Grass Fool You’ and  ‘Like You Mean It’, led by multi-instrumentalist Lech Wierzynski.

This isn’t the first time they’ll visit the muddy halls of Byron Bay’s Bluesfest, and they’ve come a long way from busking in Oakland, California to supporting influential blues, R’n’B and jazz artists like Bonnie Raitt, BB King and Allen Toussaint.

Watch them as they keep rising on April 24, 2019 just after the 30th instalment of Bluesfest.
