Charleston, SC native Frank Hartman is all about fighting corruption and deceit. By day, he works as a personal injury lawyer, suing big corporations on behalf of the average American; by night, he writes scathing songs that eviscerate corrupt people in power as frontman of his band Honeypot. The very name “Honeypot”, borrowed from a type of cybersecurity program that attracts and deflects potential hackers, aptly fits a band whose songs and videos are sometimes shocking, often political, frequently irreverent (think WEEN), and never apologetic. Hartman, a lifelong student of classic rock and progressive rock icons like RUSH, Tool, and Alice in Chains, brings a uniquely Southern twang to the prog world. Honeypot’s fans, affectionately known as Honeypotheads, are prog nerds, film buffs, and comic book lovers.

Honeypot proudly premiered its latest record On the B Side this year. The two-sided, full-color 12” vinyl album is now available to purchase or stream on all digital platforms. The album’s first three singles, “Fake News”, “Over the Line”, and “On the B Side”, are mostly political protests, followed by “Shut Your Mouth”, a hard-rock anti-lovesong. The seven-track album closes with “Ryman Alley”, an Americana tune nodding to the famous Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. On the B Side received praise from local press outlets such as the Charleston City Paper and Holy City Sinner, as well as genre giants like Progressive Rock Journal and Ghost Cult Magazine.
