"Honeycut will drop its debut on DJ Shadow's Quannum Projects label at the end of September: an excellent endorsement for a new group. The CD, The Day I Turned To Glass, is credibly eclectic without coming off disjointed as the band flirts with quirky hip-hop loops and balances on the edge of rock and soul." - SF Weekly
"Three San Franciscans making unbelievably hip, soul infused indie funk to rival any Gorillaz
and Gnarls Barkley offering."- The Owl Magazine
"Only occasionally do you find a group or album that manages to incorporate diverse
influences into a unique sound and still remain absolutely accessible, be it to the casual
radio listener or the diehard record collector... the band weaves its way through soul,
funk, rock, bossa nova, and electronica without ever stopping firmly on one, instead
creating something that's very much their own.... giving Honeycut an almost unclassifiable
vibe about them that makes them entertaining and danceable while retaining their musical
integrity." - ALLMUSIC.COM
"Fronted by a cotton-voiced crooner and animated by a keyboardist who coaxes a studio's worth of tweaked grooves from vintage synthesizers, the new trio Honeycut sounds like a record collector's latest find." - URB Magazine
"On the group's debut album, Salters plays the role of maestro, skillfully using
synthesizers to jump from one soundscape to the next, and "Tough Kid" features vocalist
Davenport singing silky falsetto lines over his bandmate's pounding synth arrangement.
Meanwhile, "Crowed Avenue" sounds as though Stevie Wonder's clavinet has been
resurrected and re-imagined, this time accompanied by a crispy beat courtesy of Sevener,
who prefers the MPC to the drum kit." - SPIN.com, (Artist of the Day)
"In a 40-minute set Honeycut appealed to every aspect of an unsuspecting crowd. Mixing
Davenport's glam like performance and a vocal range that was equal parts slick and
resonating, Salters beat out funky high-energy sounds on three keyboards. Sevener's live
drum programming made the performance of the locally popular single "Shadows"
feverish, audience members dancing in their seats as easily as they would in any club." -
The Owl Magazine, (live review)
"...check out Honeycut, who we like to think of as the Bay area's own answer to Gnarls Barkley. We've been listening to the advance of their record The Day I Turned To Glass which makes us feel like we're in the past and the future at the same time." - SFist
