The Honeytrap

Reviewers constantly refer to The Honeytrap's music as sweet and saccharine but, puns aside, Celebritymate's Toby Osborne learnt that they "take an instant disliking to those people." Oh, and they don't sound anything like Texas either.

Bret, Andy and Sue are a cool Northern threesome with a hotch-potch of musical influences that make up the Trap's melodic style. Nevertheless, they desire to be anything but 'sweet' and have "dirtied things up" on their latest tracks; creating a classic, grainy sound. Although, as a three-piece, they are not gigging at the moment, yet their stuff is still getting heard. "Our music is on seven different websites at the moment, like MP3.com. Just because we can't play live, we won't let it stop us. Thanks to the Internet we are still going strong."

Nevertheless, the departure of a drummer remains a bone of contention for the trio. Drum machine or a human drummer? What would be best for the band? Either way, being temporarily off the live circuit has allowed The Honeytrap time to write "loads of songs and move back towards authentic music."

With the two Jeordie lads being in different bands for 12 years each and Sue having a cracking voice, The Honeytrap are unmistakably one to watch. For their fearless approach to the latest web technology alone; they have guaranteed that, at the very least, they will be heard.
