Artist description The name "Lo-fi Honey" perfectly describes the band: good ideas can be conveyed on a low budget. While not truly 100% lo-fi in production, the two existing Lofihoney albums do show an affection for lo-res recording values like warm tape and fuzzy effects. Surreal songs with titles like 'Ghetto Blasted' are best conveyed in this low-res medium, giving the listener the feeling of being caught in the fray! Matt James, the band's front man and main songwriter, is a fanatic of trying to give the listener an experience. Elements of Pink Floydian dreaminess and futurism coupled with Dylan and Lennonesque lyrical imagery make the songs explorable on multiple listens.

Artist History Lofihoney was started in 1999 in Hamtramck MI. The first album, "Amplified Atmospheres" was completed in July of 2000. The album charted on a few college radio stations in the top 30. Since then Lofihoney has completed its second album in November 2002, entitled "Hush". The band believes this second album will illustrate a sharper definition of their sound.
