If you know me personally, you know that I have a proclivity for British music. So it will come as no surprise that I found myself making my way from the suburbs to see HONNE make their Ohio debut last Tuesday night at The Basement to a profusely sweating crowd. HONNE, a Japanese word meaning ‘real intention,' is the British brainchild of producer James Hatcher and producer/singer Andrew Clutterbuck, whose effortless blend of R&B, synth, and percolating guitars constantly find themselves soundtracking my life. The East London duo are currently touring in promotion of their debut album, “Warm on a Cold Night,” which has been dubbed by The Guardian as “danceable, but not braindead,” with which I wholeheartedly agree. They bring with them JONES, also known as Cherie Jones-Mattis of London, as their opener.
