Laura Wortman and Kagey Parrish are the Honey Dewdrops and have been making music for six years. They play original and American traditional songs focusing on vocal harmonies and tight instrumentation.
If the Sun Will Shine was released May 2009. Recorded live and mixed in a 1920's barn, the record is meant to pay homage to their live performances - full of the same energy and emotion the Honey Dewdrops bring to the stage. The album is a collection of songs that The Honey Dewdrops have written over the past two years and it features material that comes straight from the heart. There are eleven original tunes - some of which are award winners, and a few of the songs got Laura and Kagey plane tickets to St. Paul, Minnesota where they appeared on A Prairie Home Companion’s "People in their Twenties Talent Show" (and won first place) in March 2008. Additionally, the Dewdrops were selected as finalists in the Mountain Stage NewSong 2009 competition.

How I am enjoying your new CD! Filled with excellent musicianship, sweet lyrics, and big heart. It is **almost** as good as hearing you live!!
Next week I will be editing photos from the Live Arts event and will post them both on MySpace and FB. Hope you are warm up north and having a great time!
Thanks for gracing our town with your fine musical presence! Mountain Stage is a perfect setting for your well crafted songs! Thanks for stopping and talking with me for a little while too! Do hope to see you on the road. Sean and Karen
I'm so excited to see that you're going to play at Natasha's in Lexington! Joshua and I, Lord willing, will be there. We've been craving that mushroom potpie since May.
Once again, we had such a wonderful time listening to you play at the Time Warp tea room (i.e. that motorcycle place) in Knoxville... so many months ago. I've been meaning to get in contact with you again to tell you, a) that we listen to your album all the time and continue to love it, b) that you inspired us to have Whole Foods cater our rehearsal dinner (and we'll have some leftovers for the potluck the next day!), and c) that we thought of a cool place in Louisville you might like- Third Avenue Cafe.
Enjoy this beautiful fall, and hopefully we'll get to hear you play again in December!
We love you guys. Everything is spectacular. June nearly ripped my chest hair out this morning. Hope your weather is as good as ours and come stay some more, ok. I actually had a call about you guys for the early spring.
