Well, just feel I have to communicate something fairly important:
Last night Jeremiah and I stumbled across Honey, a seventeen-year old girl who played her first ever gig at the time- honoured Troubador cafe/restaurant/bar/ music venue in Old Brompton Road where JimiHendrix and Bob Dylan used to hang out. Her school girl friends where sitting in the corner loving it and giggling and what seemed like her proud mum and dad was taking pictures. I just wish I had noted down some of her great lyrics...
We just sort of bumbled in for a drink after our dinner in a little Italian Restaurant around the corner, thinking there might be something fun on. And there she was, the little Amy Winehouse of right now, just bursting out all ready to spring upon us all- a star being born in front of our eyes!And her guitarist was excellent too.
The little Honey is a singer /song writer of such talent it took our breath away and brought tears to our eyes...
Some of it is on her Instagram where she is Honeymooncie - do check her out and follow her. She only has 542 followers she is that unknown and there isn't even a Youtube trace of her yet...
Taking advantage of your poor hospitalized friend's incapacity - but J found me excerpts this afternoon and she really is what you say: a true original. 'Moon River', a song I usually find a bit icky, brough tears to my eyes.
ReplyDeleteAnd you were there at her debut!
So glad you found her! She played only her own material at the Troubador.
