Trailblazing Kentucky-hearted duo, The Local Honeys, will bring their modern Appalachian sound to Waterfront Hall in Wheeling, WV on Friday, May 29th. The Local Honeys are led by Linda Jean Stokely and Montana Hobbs. The tour stop follows recent tours with Tyler Childers, Colter Wall, and praise from the New York Times.
Tickets for the concert are on sale Friday, March 13th at 10:00am and available at WaterfrontHall.com.
The Local Honeys blend traditional Kentucky music with modern soundscapes and original songwriting. Fuzzed out guitar and a vibey rhythm section set the sonic bedrock to showcase the entwinement of old-time banjo and fiddle styles at the forefront of their sound.
The Honeys understand the complexities of contemporary Appalachian life and their music is reflective of such through raw and emotive songs. The narratives and perspective they weave into song, the deep understanding and endearment they share for hillbilly music, and their undeniable charm make it clear the duo is poised to become defining voices of a new Appalachia.
