Gig tickets Honey Ryder
Their myspace says “influences: a bit of everything but you can’t quite put your finger on what it is” which just about sums up this up-and-coming band. With influences from Coldplay to Sheryl Crow in their music and the dynamic mix of male/female songwriting and catchy lyrics Honey Ryder are the next big thing. Their new album ‘Rising Up’ is a mix of rock, folk rock and indie and if like me you boast about being the ‘first one there to hear them live’ then you won’t want to miss this group. The guitar played by Martyn Shone creates the mood while the striking vocals of Lindsay O’Mahony give the lyrics an edgy and rmemorable feel, “please be fair”. You’ll know what I’m talking about when you’re there. The iconic venue known for hosting the ‘best of the new best’ should also be a sign that you won’t be disappointed with the performance and with the origins of the band from a Balham basement you’re lucky you’ll be served from a Swarovski crystal bar. / Sophie Khan
