Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears Announce Spring Tour

Scandalous was produced by Jim Eno of Spoon, who also produced the band’s celebrated 2009 debut, Tell ‘Em What Your Name Is! (Lost Highway). Tell ‘Em What Your Name Is!featured a young band’s modern and gritty take on classic American funk, soul, rock and blues. The album garnered positive feedback from the press, including Esquire, Spin,NPR, UTNE Reader, Los Angeles Times, Mojo,andPopmatters.com.On Scandalous, Black Joe Lewis & the Honeybears elevate their game to another level with 11 new songs that offer more diverse and contemporary stylings than its predecessor. Gospel punk burner “You Been Lyin'” (featuring The Relatives) fits squarely alongside the country blues of “Messin'” and the Stax-meets-Stones soul of Solomon Burke’s “Since I Met You Baby.” The raw funk creeper “She’s So Scandalous” stands out as an album highlight.
