Bio
Honeyboy and Boots are a husband/wife duo from Mississippi.
Drew and Courtney Blackwell have a unique style that is all their own. This guitar/cello duo plays a blend of old blues and folk covers, country ballads, and originals that are straight from the heart.
Americana, folk, alt country, blues, all these words describe their sound, which is always changing and growing.
Drew was raised on blues, old country, and folk music in Mississippi. This is apparent in his writing, playing guitar, and singing.
Courtney is a classically trained cellist from Washington State that takes cello "out of the box" playing groovy bass lines and soaring lead parts on songs. While adding harmony to Drew's bluesy melody vocals.
In 2015, Honeyboy and Boots has performed at many festivals in Mississippi, including the Mississippi Songwriters Festival in Oceans Springs. Also they performed at the 1st annual Pilgrimage Festival in Franklin, TN. They performed at the 2021 Red Lodge Songwriters Festival. They have opened for Paul Thorn, Chapel Hart, Rising Appalachia, Josh Abbott Band, and Cary Hudson (Blue Mountain).
