Detroit-born, Toronto-based Honoré made her debut with the double A-side "It's Over" / "Innocent & Real" – sweet '70s heartbreak soul meets lush, orchestrated romance, both co-produced by Maurice "Pirahnahead" Herd and Thomas McKay. Echoes Magazine said her vocal "soars to the stratosphere." The follow-up, "Ain't No Substitute," took that same band and orchestra to the dancefloor – a modern soul monster built for champagne flutes and late-night declarations – backed with an exclusive instrumental suite of "Innocent & Real" for UK fans only. Ain't no substitute for love like that. Dig it. Available to pre-order as a collectors’ edition on vinyl – don’t miss out - or order now via digital download. Dig it.
