Formerly everyone’s favorite ‘Living Room Jamband’, several years ago Pathetic Honey’s dedicated and growing following forced them out into the public. They have been playing extensively on the Peninsula and in San Francisco ever since, gathering new fans and friends at every show.
The band selects from both acoustic and electric instruments, often blending the two in an irresistible mix of creative and impressive song craft, inventive musical exploration, good time rock-n-roll, folk-rock, bluegrass and more. Pathetic Honey’s music reflects the Bay Area music scene of years gone by…the psychedelic rock and folk rock music of yesterday’s San Francisco echo in the sounds of their unique style. Seeing this band live is a sensory experience of rhythms, grooves and the mood you bring, in addition to being a highly satisfying treat for your ears. There’s always a warm feeling at a Honey show, reminiscent of the numerous house parties from which they were born, only now there’s a lot more dancing!
Strong vocals and harmonies combine with electric and acoustic guitars and basses, mandolins and drums to unify the styles of Pathetic Honey’s influences, which come from a broad range of genres. The Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, Zero and Hot Tuna are just a small sampling of this band’s musical diet.
Come and see what all the ‘buzz’ is about!!!!

OK, it looks as though you haven't logged onto this site in a long while but I thought I would leave my thoughts anyway. You guys should come up to Alaska for a winter tour, get some turns in on the mountain! I could help you guys with booking some gigs, but we have to get on it now, before all the good nights get taken. I MISS YOU GUYS!!
Too bad if you missed it last week! See you on the 14th. Really hot show...they're just getting better....We're you there for the 'It's A Crime' jam? geez!
Had a blast jamming and hanging out with you guys at the last couple of Strawberry Fests. Have a look in my blog section for pics of the madness smiles Dave
