Single: Creative Jealousy
Label: Speedy Wunderground
Release:17/11/21
Following on from their debut ‘Burglar', buzzy new Speedy Wunderground signings Honeyglaze have shared second single, 'Creative Jealousy'.
“Creative Jealousy came from the feeling of frustration I had during a creative block", explains vocalist and guitarist Anouska. "I found myself looking around and feeling unable to live up to the high artistic standard set by my peers, not to mention my own expectations. The only thing I could think to do was to make fun of myself.” Listen below...

Previous Praise:
“The start of something incredibly impressive.. hushed, poignant, evocative” - Clash, Track of the Day
“Honeyglaze make an explosive debut with their captivating single “Burglar” [...] delectable, dreamy soundscapes” - The Line of Best Fit

"This meandering five-and-a-half minute track takes us from a spacious oddity to jazz beat marvel." - The i Paper on “Burglar”
Born out of lead songwriter Anouska’s un-desire to be a solo-act, Honeyglaze met officially at their first ever rehearsal, just three days ahead of what was to become a near-residency at their favoured ‘The Windmill’, Brixton.
Forming a mere six months ahead of a subsequent eighteen-months of mandatory solitude, Honeyglaze have since been making up for lost time, performing to rammed crowds at Green Man, Live at Leeds, Swn Festival and more.
The South London-based, Haiku-loving trio are comprised of vocalist and guitarist Anouska Sokolow, bassist Tim Curtis, and drummer Yuri Shibuichi. In their own words, they describe Honeyglaze as "the ungodly fusion of 3 humans into a clamouring superorganism. It eats only fish, and demands undistracted and constant worship. FFO Power Rangers, Salvador Dalí”.
Speedy Wunderground's Pierre Hall says of the signing, "We’re so excited to announce Honeyglaze as our next proper signing to the label. We were blown away as soon as we heard their music, and then furthermore when we met them in person. It’s felt like such a natural partnership and they’ve created something really special. We can’t wait for the world to hear. Be prepared to fall in love."
It’s safe to say that Honeyglaze are well and truly embodying the concept of ‘Ones to watch’.
