The Head and The Heart Release Sugary New Track, “Honeybee”

The Head and The Heart have released “Honeybee,” the second single from their forthcoming album Living Mirage, out May 17 from Warner Bros. Records.

Vocalist and violinist Charity Rose-Thielen said of the sonically saccharine, but lyrically understated new track:

“Honeybee” really captures the idea of living the end of your life with some regret—realizing you have been living a life complacent with the familiar—maybe even taking the person closest to you for granted and regretting not expressing your love towards them until it’s too late.
