A modern-day folk trio inspired by the music of Peter, Paul, and Mary
“A BAND CALLED HONALEE delightfully evoked the warm sound and spirit of the folk era, and our audience was completely captivated. The tunes themselves were terrific, of course, but the musicians' personalities and their connection with the audience really made the evening special.”

A Band Called Honalee is a modern-day folk trio inspired by the music and legacy of Peter, Paul and Mary. Musically accomplished, interactive and energetic, their shows allow audiences to experience this timeless music live onstage once again. Satisfying diehard Peter, Paul & Mary lovers as well as newcomers to this wonderful era of music, the band’s shows feature all of PPM’s beloved hits, including “Leaving on a Jet Plane,” “Blowing in the Wind,” and of course “Puff The Magic Dragon.” With virtuosic musicianship, stirring vocal harmonies and polished showmanship, A BAND CALLED HONALEE also offers favorites from Bob Dylan, The Byrds, Pete Seeger, Joni Mitchell, The Mamas & The Papas, Joan Baez, The Weavers, Judy Collins, and many others.
Founded in 2011 by producer and Music Director Aaron Gandy, the group believes the melodies and messages of the 1960s folk and folk/rock era are just as relevant today as they were when they were first sung, perhaps even more so. Their mission is to share this uniquely American music with new audiences, while rekindling the passion of life-long fans. Most of all, they celebrate the power of the music to inspire people and bring them together once again.
