The California Honeydrops

The California Honeydrops are an American blues and R&B band, formed in November 2007 playing in the subway stations of Oakland, California, United States. Crossing genres from roots and blues to R&B and soul, The California Honeydrops' sound is tied together by their instrumentation, vocal harmonies and New Orleans style.
