About the event

Brudenell Presents...

With support from - Divorce Finance + Pablo's Paintings

14+ (under 18s to be accompanied by an adult)

Honk are a genre-warping six-piece that are here to rewire your idea of country music. It’s called “Trashcan Country" - a raucous, rough-edged twist on twang. It’s been dragged through the back alleys of punk, doused in garage-rock grit, and left to dry in the blazing sun.
At the core of Honk is their electrifying live show - equal parts hoedown and meltdown - which has earned them support slots with trailblazers like Meryl Streak, Delivery, and Being Dead, as well as consistent backing from BBC 6 Music’s Marc Riley.
With The Real Red Foley, Randy Harrison, Chubby Hellrat, Yeehaw Culhane, L.E. Steel, and Stanley Knife at the helm, Honk delivers a sound that’ll make you stomp your boots — or knock them clean off. As their debut album, One Star, prepares to drop this May on Swish Swash and chrüsimüsi Records, the buzz is building into a full-blown roar.
