Honeyglaze by Holly Whitaker
Honeyglaze will be playing cuts from their recent debut LP.
Honeyglaze, Courting and Barns Courtney are some of the new additions to this year’s Reading/Leeds line-up.
Honeyglaze are due up on the BBC Introducing Stage after the release of their self-titled album on Speedy Wunderground last month.
“The opening track (fittingly called Start) takes its own, laconic time as a gentle, initially-imperceptible acoustic strum is joined by distant vocals and drums which create an overall sense of unease, but followed by the instant warm of Shadows, it’s revealed to be unreflective of the album as a whole,” our review reads.
“Shadows (‘always complete me late at night’) is desert-dry in production but stacked with the finest of jangly hooks, while the deft I Am Not Your Cushion (‘I am so confused between loneliness and trust’) takes awkwardness and vulnerability and turns it into a tender super-power.”
