3-month residency in Northern Italy – over a hundred gigs in the
bars and clubs of Turin, and in the Alps. Having also served a long apprenticeship on the UK covers circuit, together with presenting their own material whenever possible, they are a tight and formidable unit with a firm grasp of musical drama and all theatrical aspects that go with putting on a show. However rumHoney are also firm friends, and enjoy all time together.
