- "HoneyPot creates an awesome funky stew." Quixotes True Blue News and Reviews; Denver, CO. - "One of the best bands I?ve heard this year." Johnny Parris, Act 1 Entertainment - "Nothing less than spectacular. Their live sound outdid my expectations, and they were a lot better than what existed on their CD. They were tight, groovy, and capable of explosive jams." What Da Funk Newsletter; Nickies; San Francisco, CA. - "They blow most of the bands we play with out of the water." Ricky Showalter; Bass; Liquid Soul - "It sounds a lot like Galactic, but is more song oriented. This is acid jazz the way your daddy used to dig it." What Da Funk Newsletter - "This pedigreed band of New Orleans all stars mix together jazz, funk, and psychedelic rock better than almost anyone around." Creative Loafing, Atlanta, GA. - "This band did one three hour set without breaks. Good bladders is what this indicates." Quixotes True Blue News and Reviews; Denver, CO. - "NOLA funk studs" WhatDaFunk Newsletter - "They sure surprised me by the level of communication they had with each other. You can tell that this band listens to each other, that they get along, and are true friends." HeadJams.com - "These guys are some bad mother*^%*#@$!" "Mean" Willie Green; Neville Brothers Drummer

Billboard Magazine- The heart of the New Orleans sound is still roots music - jazz, funk, rhythm and blues. Young bands are taking these roots genres in exciting new directions, finding initial support with college audiences, releasing independent CDs and then hitting the road. Their ranks include Juice, a nouveau-funk band in the tradition of Galactic; Idletime, whose musicians flout a jazzier influence; Cronk, a unit that broke off from ling running brass/funk/hip-hop hybrid All That; Quintology, a younger quintet that looks to be the next Astral Project; and HoneyPot and Afroskull, two more funk rooted bands.

From the High Sierra Festival- After a morning of Deep Banana and the Motet, I was in need of something to keep the funk going. I guess High Sierra was aware that this need would pop up among us, hence why they had the New Orleans band HoneyPot lay it down for us at the perfect time. This is a younger band that has a high drive and is forming quickly. They sure surprised me by the level of communication they had with each other. You can tell that the band listens to each other, that they get along, and are true friends. From the taste they left in my ears, I think they are on their way, for they have the ingredients. These younger bands like ALO, Tunji, Tree O Frogs, and HoneyPot are on their way. They are what this scene needs; young talent with good vibes, good people, and the kind of people supporting them that become part of the music as it's created. -Seth Weiner

From HeadJams.com- The latest band to come here to the mecca of Jamband music is a fantastic jazz and funk outfit out of New Orleans called HoneyPot. HoneyPot has recently left the comforts of home and are acquainting themselves with the national scene. They have just landed in the Boston area and are introducing New England to their sound. You can check out samples of their album "Aquasox" at the Artist Listing section here at HeadJams.com. Or you can visit the downloads section and check out their track, Fountain Of Muse. That track has already become a favorite of the HeadJams visitors. -Phil Simon

whatever happened to Basehead other than the obvious danger of a band called Basehead. They were one of the first hip hip hop bands to play jazzy cool hep cat tunes with real instruments (kind of like ultra mega maxi cool Saint James who went back to machines because he realized you had to use real musicians and they were all on crack) So Basehead were great so is Honeypot though the name of the band is worrisome cause if Honeypot is a dude, well......the music kicks ass major league--especially this tune.....
