The Americana band from Asheville NC is coming to the Pioneer Valley and I had the opportunity to chat with singer and principal songwriter Amanda Anne Platt. Founded in 2007, the band has released five CD’s since and The Honeycutters are touring in support of their excellent new release, Amanda Anne Platt and the Honeycutters. The broadcast includes a number of songs including Juke Box, Brand New Start, Learning How to Love Him, Long Ride, and Birthday Song.

Our conversation covers Amanda Anne’s early musical training, her thoughts on the musical industry’s present business models, her songwriting methods as well as comments on the songs we present on the broadcast.

Her band The Honeycutters perform at the Parlor Room on Wednesday 11/15. Listen to the audio here:
