Dirty Honey has been writing and demoing new material at its home studio in Los Angeles, with producer Nick DiDia consulting the band via Zoom. The group hopes to record its first full-length album in either Los Angeles or Australia, although plans to travel to the latter to write the record were scrapped due to the pandemic.
Dirty Honey worked with DiDia at his studio in Australia on its debut EP. Singer Marc LaBelle and guitarist John Notto told us what the veteran producer brought to the table: (LaBelle) “He knows just the right amount of, like, 'live' that needs to be in there and just the right amount of, like, nuance to make it feel energetic.” (Notto) “He's just really in tune to that energy. And he's got like a subtle skill of, like…he knew when to kick us out of the room.”
Dirty Honey's independently released debut EP came out last year and featured the Number One rock radio hit “When I'm Gone.”
The Los Angeles-based act hopes to begin recording its first LP next month, either in Australia with DiDia or in Los Angeles with DiDia once again participating via Zoom.
