Rose Conner, aka: HoneyRose (rippin soulful singing, and rhythm guitar),
Tony Vito (smackin' them skins), Mark Harris (throwin' out the leads), and Mark Chole (laying down the funk on bass).
>>>>>>>>You may find me performing my original rock/blues/funk with my band HONEYROSE AND THE BRIDGE BROS or you might see me just playing a few tunes solo-acoustic style in a cafe.
Influences
Anybody and everybody I have EVER heard. Any and all music in my life is "influencing" in one way or another. Soul, funk, reaggae, hip-hop, opera, classical, african, indian, tribal, whatever..... Music is influencial no matter what.
Sounds Like
Many people tell me "you sound like Janis". However, that is a complement that I am too humble to accept.
HoneyRose & The Bridge Bros.
From curbsides to the Sistine Chapel, HoneyRose has captivated audiences from all over the world. With her raw emotions exposed, she has been able to develop her unique lyrical style - both brutally honest, yet sensually sensitive to circumstance.
Being backed by the Bridge Bros has certainly opened up the avenues that have lead HoneyRose (often compared to Janis Joplin) down a path seemingly unaccomplishable while being a solo artist the first five years of her, nowhere near over, musical career. The Bridge Bros - comprised of members that have played with musicians such as Slash, Eddie Van Halen, Jessie Collin Young, and Erik Martin, have recognized HoneyRose’s raw talent and added the depth to her sound that you hear today.
With the perfect infusion of blues, rock, and funk, HoneyRose brings you her unmistakable soulful singing. It is evident, in more ways than one, that she is coming from her heart, mind, but mostly soul, while performing songs that obviously stem from an emotional attachment to personal experience. To hear her in person is more than can be put on paper.
“HoneyRose is a total original. Some people compare her to other singers (like Janis Joplin), but if you listen to her and her lyrics, she is very unique and has a soul and style all her own. Her voice has major power.”

Rasta what cha singing Mon? Is it that special harvest from your three month enlightenment? Rasta may we listen as you spread your voice, as you exhale sharing your wisdom for all to feel... Rasta free our minds from oppression, as you teach on deep, prolific, soul stirring, awareness, (for a lack of a better word) "shit".
Enlighten our souls, as we share in this corn you planted, your seeds of Jah truth. Ur voice which has been oppressed for so, so long, speaks of injustice, oppression, world strife, world hunger, world pain, the governmental brainwashing leading to mental, racial, economic slavery of the masses,
A voice which has been quite as if in slumber roars into our minds, exhaling seeds, showing our past, present and future before Us, of planted trees, bitter harvests, one love, I and I, unity, love, about life and beyond......real shit Rasta.
U have planted seeds Rasta, now watch them grow no Sheriff John Brown to cut them down..Sing Ur Verse Rasta Sing On.........
Beauty's outer shell imagination, timeless nights fanning the fires of one hope, one desire A connection deeper then skin
On a single sheet of paper Beauty might type, smile, cry, write, share a 4 letter word first letter L...
Ultimate contentment testament to mankind's concept of perfection
Eyes warm with welcome covers all but hide's nothing images inviting temptation in its most human form
Whispers from naked eyes that lie some not worthy maybe just one is
Beauty sexy curves well-developed, Naw Mon Beauty has no shape, has no color
Beauty is as Beauty does, Beauty is as Beauty loves
Mesmerizing senses...lips...eyes.....flawless skin in "darkness maybe" its all in Beauty's name, grace, dignity how she face each and every day
Beauty is beyond compare demanding fulfillment, respect, trust, understanding for Beauty is not without faults for there are times as woman she needs satisfaction from faces that lie; pleading for open wide depths of her.......
Blank stares at blank pages Condemn Beauty not, for in all stages an all forms Beauty is bliss
