The first official cannabis cafe in the United States opened up in West Hollywood this week. Hunnypot isn't the type to wait around for permissions. It was just another new year last night and we celebrate HIGH holidays every other week. Last night we did like we always have. Hot Tub Johnnie keefed it real and lit up the night with a starting DJ set. Adèle Ho jumped in the hot tub for her origin story interview and ripped a playlist of party tunes. Sarah Rogo returned with her loaded blues and rhythm voodoo. Peter More performed dank melodies and harmonies. Sugi Dakks left everyone satisfied with high energy raucous funk, pop & rock. The Singularity brought us higher conscience electro rock and Hot Tub blazed a dance party set for a new wave of fans. 09/30/2019

PETER MORE
Over the years, Peter More and his bandmates have called many places home. Originally from Fort Worth, Texas, More joined forces with Spanish flamenco guitarist José Juan Poyatos, Mexican bassist Diego Noyola, and French-American drummer Adrien Faunce in San Miguel de Allende, the colonial arts haven three hours north of Mexico City. There, the band began to record with prolific drummer Rick Shlosser (who played on many Van Morrison and James Taylor classics, among hundreds of other credits).
A chance encounter with Steely Dan's Donald Fagen, who happened to be visiting San Miguel, led to Fagen producing More's debut album, "Beautiful Disrepair," and his follow-up EP entitled "Shoulder." Best described by Donald Fagen as music with "a smart savvy edge...its an American dish served with hot sauce." More's layered stories naturally have evolved with the band’s continual movement through recording sessions beyond San Miguel that took place in Fort Worth, New York City, and Woodstock.
Wanderlust underscores More's music, weaving the many influences and intersections from the songwriter's unconventional journey. The road just seems to strengthen the bond between the band-mates and the power of More's heartfelt songs.

THE SINGULARITY
What if Bowie, Prince and the Cure had a baby?
Blog and radio attention has been universal using lots of superlatives like: “Genius, Massive, Perfection, Brilliant, Great, Outstanding, Exquisite, Remarkable, Pure Beauty, Excellent, Impressive, Inspiring” and seem to feature the words “I Love” a lot. The most important people are the fans. They are lovely people who genuinely seem to love it!
