Profile Information

Name: THE HONORABLE SOUTH

About Me: The Honorable South blend rocknroll, soul, funk, and elements of hip-hop to create a truly distinctive sound dubbed "Electric Soul Rocknroll". With a range of influences like Modest Mouse, Gnarls Barkley, White Stripes, Chuck Berry, the YYYS, Nina Simone, and Outkast ; The Honorable South are genre bending gems and a testament to what can happen when originality, vision, and fearlessness mingle.

In October 2009, they released a bold demo EP entitled "Dirty in the Light" distinguishing THS as a relevant voice in today’s society and as New Orleans Afro Rock pioneers. It was on this demo that singles like “Oh you Call” caught the attention of music lovers as far away as the UK and Japan.

In 2012, The Honorable South released their debut album entitled“I Love My Tribe”. MS. Charm Taylor speaks, “this album is truly about being brave. Brave enough-brave enough to acknowledge one another as masters of our respective craft, doing more than existing in this world- living like we need one another-and love. It's infectious”

Since the release of "I Love My Tribe" the band has been featured in the 365 Dreams "Band of the Day App", and on the cover of Alternative Culture Magazine "Anti Gravity".

The Honorable South is re-envisioning Rock n Roll for the masses. Listen and get whisked away to the world of prideful folks who keep all hours in "the dirtiest city that you ever did love". An Honorable South live show translates into foot stomping, hand clapping Rock n Roll, and a conjuring of raw electric energy onstage each and every time.
