Biography
The Honeyrunners are an 'alt-soul' band from Toronto, Canada, a modern consequence of music alchemy: "rock & roll with the raw soul of a Motown band and the brashness of 90s punk".
Since their inception in Toronto in October 2012, The Honeyrunners have shared stages with The Balconies, U.S.S., King Khan & BBQ Show, Head of the Herd, Gino Washington & many more. They called in Jeff Heisholt (The Trews, The Skydiggers, Peter Elkas) to wail on B3 for EP 2, recorded mostly live-off-the-floor over three days at Toronto’s coveted Phase One Studios.

2013 saw The Honeyrunners first single, “Jet Set“, featured in an international Bacardi campaign, followed by the short & sweet “My Garage“, a love letter dedicated to the band’s jam space & adopted by Coca-Cola’s social music project 52 Songs of Happiness. The placements garnered some attention and The Honeyrunners followed suit in DIY fashion, with three Canadian tours, two appearances on CTV Canada AM, radio play across North America, and 150+ gigs to earn their keep in front of crowds of all sizes. In short, the band doesn’t sleep much and it seems to do the trick.
