ALBUM PREMIERE: Honeypot Mixes Array of Rock Styles with Dark Commentary on ‘On the B Side’

Honeypot consists of Frank Hartman (guitar, drums, vocals) and Chris Chamberlain (bass, backing, production). Heavily influenced by the classic rock bands of the 60s and 70s, Honeypot infuses a long musical history with elements of prog rock, classic rock, and grunge. The songs are socially conscious, politically-minded, and always of the moment.

Hartman, a lifelong student of classic rock bands and progressive rock icons like RUSH, Tool, and Alice in Chains, adds a uniquely Southern-rock twang into the music of Honeypot. The South Carolina native is a practicing lawyer by day and guitarist/drummer/songwriter by night. His fans, whom he affectionately calls Honeypotheads, are music nerds, gearheads, comic book- and film-buffs. Honeypot’s previous singles, “Fake News”, “Over the Line” and “On the B Side” were mostly political, anti-Trump protest songs. The full album, titled On the B Side, comes out March 19th on vinyl and digital.

Today Glide is excited to offer an exclusive early listen of On The B Side. With songs that are frequently irreverent (think WEEN), never apologetic, always electric guitar-driven, the band conjures up a big and bold rock and roll sound that is laced with prog, charged up 70s rock, metal, and plenty of darkly humorous commentary on the state of our world. There is plenty of guitar shredding throughout, which is contrasted with vivid lyrics. The album is the product of two life-long friends pulled in different directions by the wayward winds of life. The songs birthed from this tension represent the seven cardinal sins: pride, greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony, and sloth.
