"The Corner Laughers are a Californian band who come across like a West Coast Belle and Sebastian. Their indie pop is sassy and smart, intelligent and intricate, twee with bite." -- Paul Lester, The Guardian UK

Snuggly, sassy, spacey pop music. Female vocals, heavenly boy-girl harmonies, sparkly ukulele, jangly guitar and a rhythm section of the gods.

The  band  is  led  by  singer/uke player  Karla  Kane,  with  bassist  Khoi  Huynh,  drummer  Charlie  Crabtree,  and  guitarist  KC  Bowman.  Their  sound  defies  pigeonholes  but  has  been  compared  to  Kirsty  MacColl,  XTC,  Belle  and Sebastian,  and  Allo  Darlin’. With  three  full  length  releases under  their  belt,  called  a  “nigh-­‐on-­‐perfect  fusion  of  bubblegum -­‐sweet  tunefulness  and  clever,  subtly  barbed  lyrics”  (Icon  Magazine)  and  “simply  wonderful”  (PopMatters),  The  Corner  Laughers  have  received  international  radio airplay  and  reviews;  had  several songs  in  national  retail  campaigns;  toured  the  UK/Europe;  and  performed  with  artists  including  Mike  Viola,  Three  Minute  Tease,  Adam  Schlesinger  (Fountains  of  Wayne),  and Martin  Newell.

It'd be great to have a media-ready biog to copy and paste into this space but the truth of it all is that I'm not really sure what to put here. We're not selling anything right now so why invent an insincere marketing pitch? 
Honeybug is a solo, 3-piece, 4-piece, 6-piece and 7-piece (depending on who's available) powerpop band from the central belt of Scotland. We play live in all of these permutations. The recordings tend to have fewer participants due to availability and economy of scale/limited resources.
It'd be rude, however, not to mention here how important the live band members are to the Honeybug operation. 
They are: 
Ramage - guitars, vocals
Erin - vocals, keyboards, percussion
Laura - vocals, percussion
Paul - bass, vocals
Casey - drums, vocals
Dave - vocals, percussion
Performing and production credits will be added on a song by song basis. 
By the way, I'm Ni. I write the songs and sing and play a bit. Thanks for visiting our Soundcloud page!
