Emerging in 2017,
Honey Harper is a shadowy and lonesome country-inspired operation from
William Fussell, an Atlanta-based indie artist who is also associated with post-punkers
Mood Rings and the synth-pop project Promise Keeper.
Fussell initially found success in 2011 with the lush post-punk band
Mood Rings. Relocating to London, England in 2015,
Fussell first released a synth-oriented project under the name Promise Keeper before unveiling his moody country alter ego in 2017. As
Harper, he applies some of the shadowy ethereal elements from his previous projects to a songwriting and performance style that digs deeply into the mythos of country music, particularly the slow and lonesome variety. Signing with Canadian indie Arbutus Records, he released his debut EP, Universal Country, in late 2017, with his first full-length effort, Starmaker, arriving in early 2020. ~ Timothy Monger
