There are multiple artists that perform under the name Honeycrash 1) Honeycrush is the solo project of New York singer-songwriter and poet Alexandra Antonopoulos. Characterized by evocative storytelling and raw, emotive vocals, Honeycrush blurs the edges of alternative and indie rock drawing on the influences of ‘90s permawave artists like Fiona Apple, Nirvana, PJ Harvey, and Jeff Buckley. On her debut EP MILK TEETH, Antonopoulos tries to reconcile the relationship between pain and growth, and instead of turning away from her flaws and worst days, takes a microscope to them. Obsessive longing, embittered grief, impotent rage, and the relentless pursuit of self-improvement are inescapable realities that Antonopoulos refuses to condemn. 2) Unique indie-pop band from Stoke who used to play a lot around the area in the early 1990's. Fronted by Nick Hawkes with Paul Baguley on lead, Roger Ginty (?) on rhythm guitar, Stuart White on bass and Steven French on drums, they were signed to Kite Records and released only one single, Kill Someone You Like in 1990, having recorded that at a small 8 track studio in Rugeley. Subsequent recordings made at Swallow Studios in Smallwood near Congleton never quite made it into circulation but were another step down the line in their progression. The band split after all too short a time when Steven went off to University in Scotland...but not before a glorious performance at North Staffs Poly when they headlined along with the Venus Beads and gave all too brief a taste of what they could have achieved. Powerful and raw with a different sound that could and should have seen them go onto greater things, Honeycrash made a big impression on a lot of people in a short time and deserved more for their efforts. Nick Hawkes was one of the most unique front men anyone could wish to see and his performances are matched only by the individuality of his songwriting. An untapped genius.
