About Me

HONEYMUNCH
The Duesseldorf based quintett is known for its unique mix of funk and jazz with an electronic flavour.

Their first album "Solon" was released on the Italian Label Irma Records and one of the tracks made it to the TV-series "Sex and the City". The second album "Bunch" was released on the German Label Infracom Records.
Until recently Honeymunch was an instrumental group. For their third album "New Destination" they invited the Berlin based singer J. Stickel of the band popstickel to participate in three of their songs.
Honeymunch have played over 100 concerts at venues like Stadtgarten (Cologne), Leverkusener Jazztage, Juicy Beat Festival, Europhonics Jazzfestival (Dortmund), Bitterzoet (Amsterdam) Ostsee Jazzfestival, Mülheim Jazzfestival to name just a few.
They have the reputation for being one of the most outstanding Live Bands in its genre.
