“The California Honeydrops…evoke the greasy rumble of Booker T and channel the spiritual ecstasy of Sly and the Family Stone.” -Rolling Stone

Formed in the subway systems of Oakland, retro-soul outfit The California Honeydropsare an electrifying group that defy convention at every turn. They’ve become a mainstay at festivals including Byron Bay Bluesfest (Australia), Outside Lands, Monterey Jazz, Lightning In A Bottle, and touring with B.B. King, Dr. John, Bonnie Raitt, Buddy Guy, and Allen Toussaint. Led by the enigmatic and energetic frontman, Lech Wierzynski, and drummer Benjamin Malament, each member of the band is a virtuoso in their own rite —Yanos “Johnny Bones” Lustigon saxophone, Lorenzo Loera on keyboards/guitar, Beaumont Beaullieuon bass, and regularly accompanied by Scott Messersmithon percussion, Oliver Tuttleon trombone, Leon Cotteron saxophone/clarinet, and Miles Lyonson trombone/sousaphone —navigating through a vast repertoire of original songs and timeless classics every night.

But what truly sets them apart is their unwavering commitment to the art of improvisation -a skill so finely honed that they have completely abandoned the use of set lists and no two shows are ever the same. Off stage, their music has been streamed more than 200 million times, and placed in a variety of TV and films, including “Dead To Me,” “Alaska Daily,” “Black-ish” and more. They are currently touring North America in support of their new deluxe album, ‘Soft Spot’.
