Honey Tongue Take Me Anywhere CD

Honey Tongue has created a nationwide buzz with a full-time touring schedule and the release of its latest CD, "Take Me Anywhere," on Naga Night Records. "I've pined for years for the days when I'd find a band led by a woman, with literate lyrics, hard-charging punk guitars, and riffs to bring me back to Blondie or the Pretenders of a quarter century ago. Honey Tongue has made it worth the wait..." - Erik Steiner, Cosmik Debris"Seattle's Goodness set a high standard for straight-up rock & roll bands fronted by explosively smart 'n' sassy women--now the same burg has produced Honey Tongue, full of their own special goodness. With her starlet looks and paint-peeling pipes, singer Jen Ayers puts "women in rock" like Shakira and Avril to shame on HT's dead-solid debut, Take Me Anywhere." - Salt Lake City's "City Weekly" Honey Tongue engages & captivates audiences with its intelligent lyrics, soaring melodies, high-energy grooves and vibrant image. From fans bum-rushing the stage in major markets across the U.S. Honey Tongue's chemistry is undeniable. Powerhouse vocalist and keyboardist Jen Ayers, guitarist Graham McNeill, bassist Sam Larson and drummer Darnton Lewis, have joined together to create dynamic music with a pop sensibility that translates into memorable rock shows and a tight, full-length CD debut. Honey Tongue's on-stage electricity, impressive songwriting skills, rave reviews and radio/T.V. appearances have earned the band showcase performances during SXSW Music Conference 2003 (for GoGirlsMusic), NACA 2003 Northern Plains Region (National Association of Campus Activities), Nashville Music Conference 2002, EAT'M Music Conference 2002, Canada's New Music West 2001 (for the GRAMMY's), GoGirlsMusicFest 2001 and ROCKRGRL Music Conference 2000.
