Honey Power

Honey Power was conceived in the summer of 2005 in Tartu. Thanks to quick-spreading internet demos it didn't take long for the best Estonian indie label Seksound to call the band and make an intriguing proposal to record their first CD. In late 2006 Honey Power released their debut album named "Macrosilly". The single "Travelling Nonstop" was picked by Raadio 2 for their Demo of the Week section.



Stylistically, it is rather tricky to classify Honey Power, but fans of Pavement, The Wedding Present, lo-fi-approach to brit-pop and synth-pop should find enough to like here. Presently, the band is cracking out new outrageous sounds and developing towards endless creativity, planning to release their second, long-awaited album later in 2010. A leaked track "Get Country" with its matured songwriting hints at promising things to come.



Honey Power has given over fifty concerts in Estonia, Finland, Latvia and Lithuania.



Honey Power'i asutasid 2005. aasta suvel Tartus Martin Kikas (laul, kitarr) ja Madis Aesma (trummid). Täna kuuluvad omanäolist indie-rocki mängivasse bändi lisaks Kikas'ele Inga Nõlvak (bass), Martin Järvekülg (kitarr) ja Madis Paalo (trumm).



Bändi esimesed prooviruumidemod pälvisid internetis palju tähelepanu ja juba 2006 ilmus Eesti olulisima indie-leibeli Seksound alt nende debüütalbum “Macrosilly”. Plaat segas The Wedding Present'i, Pavementi ja Pixies'e juurtega 90ndate indie-rokki, brit- ja süntpoppi ning Kikas'e ainulaadset laulumaneeri. Plaadilt pärinev raadiosingel "Travelling Nonstop" valiti 2006. aasta mais Raadio 2 "Nädala Demoks".



2008. aastal lasi Seksound välja digisingli retrohõngulisest palast “80s Party”. 2010. aastal ilmub Honey Power'i kauaoodatud teine album, millelt raadiosse jõudnud lugu “Get Country” näitab bändi küpsema ja veenvamana kui kunagi varem.



Honey Power on lisaks Eestile andnud kontserte ka Lätis, Leedus ja Soomes.
