Amanda Anne Platt & The Honeycutters’ nuanced music brings insight and wit to the stories Platt tells through songwriting. Lyrically driven, the band’s country roots music often inspires introspection, whether it be about life on the road, heartache or hope. There is an empathetic and charming wit ingrained in Platt’s songwriting. She has a knack for accessing a deep well of emotion and applying it to her story-telling, whether she is writing from her own experiences or immersing herself into the melody of emotions in another person’s life.
The acclaimed Asheville band formed in 2007 as a vehicle for Platt’s songwriting. By 2015, Amanda Anne Platt & The Honeycutters had been signed by the region’s top Americana label - Organic Records - and were being praised nationally by music publications.
Performing alongside Platt, the Honeycutters are Matt Smith on pedal steel and electric guitars, Kevin Williams on keyboard and vocals, Rick Cooper on bass and vocals, and Evan Martin on drums and vocals. Their latest and sixth studio album – The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea – was released in 2022. The band will be headlining The Get Off the Grid Fest in Spartanburg, SC from August 18-20.
