In Their Words: “When I was sick and home from school my grandma would often make me honey and butter on toast. A few weeks before my grandma’s 100th birthday I woke from a dream where I was a kid again and layin’ in my bed. As I lay there, waking up, this song just kind of took form in my mind. It was a bitter sweet song because I had all these sweet memories but I knew that I would not be able to see my family in Poland for her birthday.” — Lech Wierzynkski, The California Honeydrops
“This album has our unique Honeydrop take on many styles of music, all under a cohesive production style so there’s no confusion. There’s no provin’. Only groovin’. Soft Spot is a special one. We can’t tell you how happy we are to have made it and to give you these new songs.” — Ben Malament, The California Honeydrops
