Their collaboration dates back to seven years ago, when two eleven year old boys with a keyboard, a tape recorder and an affection for punk recorded their first song over the top of a dusty Tom Petty cassette.
After acquiring a set of drums and an electric guitar, a three piece band was formed, playing together until early 2008, when a strange transition fuelled by a mutual love of eclectic music occurred. This is where The Honey Month begun. The band, based in Brisbane, now consists of Thomas, Liam, David, Jonathan, and Hamish.
An obsession with unconventional instruments saw the boys acquiring a piano accordion, melodica, musical saw, kalimba, mandolin, double bass and ukulele to become intrinsic parts of their ever expanding collective sound. Dedication to their music has seen The Honey Month not sleeping until they are learnt with competence.
Crafting unique songs which portray a musical freedom uncommon with their peers, The Honey Month create haunting lyrical themes of mortality and betrayal which sit comfortably with the elements whilst threatening a grand conclusion.
