Formed in 2015 in Waco, Texas, Honest Men crafted their bright indie rock sound on the heels of winning the battle of the bands at their college alma mater, Baylor University. Singer Seth Findley, guitarist Brooks Whitehurst, and drummer Zach Solomon spent the next six months honing their sound and playing shows in their home state before adding bassist Nathan Wallace to the lineup that same winter.

With a collection of songs mixing 80’s tinged synth-pop with guitar-forward indie rock, Honest Men headed to Nashville in the summer of 2016 to record their debut EP, Okay Dreamer, which self-released the following January. Hallmarked by the lead single “Colors” and reminiscent of such bands as The Killers, Young the Giant, and WALK THE MOON, the band headlined Okay Dreamer and their energetic live show all over Texas for the next year as well as supporting acts such as Smash Mouth, COIN, Colony House, Kings Kaleidoscope, Elephante and more.

2018 saw the band relocate to Austin, Texas and record a follow up to 2017’s debut, Honest Men. Their self-titled EP showcases a much more polished and versatile sound for the band, anchored by vibrant singles such as “Mad Love,” “I’m Okay,” and “Rose.” The men chose to self-title this album because they truly felt as if they had come into their sound with these new songs.

The days are young and the future is bright. This is only the beginning.
