about

A shufflin' slow dance with departure, this decided twist on the classic love song is a seductive, gentle farewell. Steeped in whiskey and existing in its own time and space, Honey babe is the gift of goodbye.

lyrics

Oh sugar my honey babe
I don't want to leave you
But I got to get out
You've been taking your sweet time
Oh oh I don't feel right

I never could live day to day
Can't stand these white walls
These clean dinner plates
All that I have is not mine

Oh sugar my buttercup
I don't want to leave you
But I got to give it up
All that we have is not fine
Baby baby baby don't be mine

Oh sugar my honey babe

about

Greta O'Leary Wellington, New Zealand

Spook-folk Sweetheart Greta O’Leary is a songwriter and musician whose pervasive yet spacious sound cuts through the thickest of skins.

Poignant, heartbreaking, and occasionally absurd, O’Leary seizes us with her dynamic voice, bending the folk-genre to another plane. Think Angel Olsen meets Vashti Bunyan.

“Acoustic, with a free-thinking aesthetic and a refusal to conform”- Muzicnet
