OH HONEY “WISH YOU WERE HERE” ON NEW EP
BROOKLYN INDIE POP DUO DELIVER THIRD INSTALLMENT OF “POSTCARD SERIES”
FOUR-SONG EP HIGHLIGHTED BY NEW SINGLE, “SUGAR, YOU”
FIRST-EVER U.S. HEADLINE TOUR BEGINS MARCH 24TH AT THE ROXY IN LOS ANGELES
“WISH YOU WERE HERE” ARRIVES ON MARCH 24TH
Fueled By Ramen/Atlantic recording group Oh Honey has announced the release of their anticipated new EP, “WISH YOU WERE HERE,” which arrives on March 24th and marks the third of four EPs dubbed “The Postcard Series.” Highlighted by the instantly ebullient new single, “Sugar, You,” “WISH YOU WERE HERE” sees the Brooklyn-based duo continuing to perfect their special brand of fun- emotionally uplifting music, strikingly hooky songcraft, and distinctive harmonies. The new EP follows 2013’s “WITH LOVE” and last year’s “SINCERELY YOURS,” with the fourth and final installment – entitled “UNTIL NEXT TIME” – slated for release later this year.
Oh Honey has quickly established themselves as an irresistibly engaging live act, winning over new fans over the course of the last year with a seemingly non-stop live schedule that included the 2014 Honda Civic Tour (alongside American Authors) and radio dates alongside Ed Sheeran, Christina Perri, Echosmith, and others. Oh Honey are now set to embark on their very first U.S. headline tour, “Postcards Across America,” with special guests Public, kicking off March 24th at Los Angeles’ legendary Roxy and traveling through mid-April including a hometown stop at The Studio at Webster Hall in New York City on April 15th.
The duo has scored widespread international acclaim with their breakthrough single, “Be Okay.” The track – featured on the “WITH LOVE” EP – proved to be a top 25 hit at Hot AC outlets nationwide and along with multiple Oh Honey songs has been featured in a wide range of TV series, films, and other campaigns internationally, including Fox’s Glee, Red Band Society, ABC’s Selfie, DreamWorks’ The Hundred Foot Journey, Nestea’s “Taste of Freedom” campaign, and currently featured in commercials for Chili’s Bar & Grill, Google Android and Best Buy.
“Oh Honey skillfully blend thick, acoustic guitars with piano accents and a folk-tinged vibe that’s reminiscent of, say, Mumford & Sons, but their aggressively cheerful, shouty pop hooks are straight out of Icona Pop’s playbook” –MTV BUZZWORTHY
“Nothing but positive jams for this strummy, soulful Brooklyn duo. Like Matt & Kim with better production values.” –ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY
“Oh Honey delivers delightfully upbeat tunes that still have a profound emotional resonance” –ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT
“Fall’s most buzzworthy band.” –THE HUFFINGTON POST
