I’ve seen many shows at the Plaza Live in Orlando, most of which usually end with being herded against extremely sweaty, exhausted, fans that you’d probably rather not breathe on you. Described as a synth-pop and contemporary R&B duo, Honne makes incredibly full-bodied music that is extremely pleasant to listen to.
That said, I did not see how this excellent studying/late night car ride soundtrack was going to mix with something like a live performance. I’m pleased to say Honne’s live performance was probably the most enjoyable, intimate show I’ve ever seen live. The show had an overarching theme of having fun that felt less self-destructive as many other artists and more self-fulfilling and introspective. This culture came to a head when the guys actually got every individual (and I do mean every single one) in the audience to form lines of hugs and friendly embraces. It was definitely the first time I was genuinely happy to be connected, shoulder to shoulder, with all those sweaty, exhausted fans and I would gladly see them again.
