Description

"He can sell you a bill of love that from anyone else would seem corny and make you believe again - in the long summers of blissful youth, in dancing the night away. You may have seen Bart Davenport fronting the electro future-funk trio called Honeycut, or you may have heard their song “Exodus Honey” in a recent iMac ad. Perhaps you caught his one man Folk Rock show between the trees and beards of Big Sur or in England, Spain or Germany. Bart Davenport is a singer-songwriter troubadour who wears his passionate love of West Coast Pop on his sleeve. His songs have captivated audiences worldwide for years, dating back to his time as a front man for Oakland Garage/Blues combo The Loved Ones.

On Palaces, his fourth solo album and third for Antenna Farm, he delves into his heart and soul to give us a collection brimming over with arresting melodies, heartfelt lyrics and subtle musical touches that compliment his open, affable vocals, all delivered with his trademark combination of quiet passion and subtle wit. Palaces is the work of an artist who has assimilated the influences of a lifetime’s worth of music making. Drawing from Soft Rock, Bossa Nova, Brit Folk, and even a touch of Philly Soul, it captures a cohesive fusion of Traditional and Indie Pop."
