The Honeyrods was an obscure alternative rock band based in Nashville, Tennessee that consisted of lead singer Gordon Cabaniss, drummer Michael Dale, Bassist Jeremy Brashears, guitarist Chris Hunter, and guitarist Matt Clemmons. The band was active between 1994 and 1997, and during that time, they built up a small but dedicated fanbase known as "The Rod Squad." The band remains best known for its final release, their major self-titled label debut released by Capricorn Records in 1997, with the band breaking up shortly after its release due to Cabaniss reportedly being dissatisfied with the final product. The band’s music video for Love Bee was rediscovered in May 2017.
Before this, however, The Honeyrods released two EPs on the independent label Del House Records. Their second EP, Cha Cha Cha, released in 1996, while somewhat more difficult to come by than their major label release, can still be found and purchased with enough searching. Their first EP, however, also self-titled, had been lost to the sands of time, with nothing but a page on Discogs about it having survived. According to said page, the track listing was as follows:
# | Song Title | Length | Status | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Jellybone | 3:01 | Found | |
2 | Away | 4:08 | Found | Found (live version) |
3 | Love Bee | 3:48 | Found | Found (re-recorded version) |
4 | Wild Bill | 3:29 | Found | |
5 | Space Invader Pop | 3:58 | Found |
Availability
