Song(s) of the Day # 2,283 Honey Cutt


Rather lovely and immediate this one. Coasting, the debut album by Honey Cutt, (Hayley Honeycutt) came to my ears yesterday morning and I was pretty much instantly taken. Finding the softspot between Alvvays and The Sundays, it's not really an original record per se but it is a rather lovely one.


Honey Cutt are actually a band, rather than a moniker for Honeycutt alone. A trio based in Boston. Nevertheless, it's she who graces the album sleeve of Coasting and she's clearly the one powering this project forward. Altogether a lovely start and one recommended for fans of this jangly ethereal stuff.




This may make you feel eighteen again, even if these days are long gone. Music can do that.The songs here have the great twists of the artists above. If Honey Cutt perhaps need to carve out territory that's more obviously their own from here, this is more than enough of now and I'm really quite taken.
