Black Honey Tickets

Two years can change everything. Just ask Izzy B. Phillips, the fiercely passionate and endlessly forthright frontwoman of Brighton-formed quartet Black Honey.

For more than a decade, she’s been conjuring vivid cinematic universes alongside guitarist Chris Ostler, bassist Tommy Taylor and drummer Alex Woodward, scoring top 10 albums and playing shows with Liam Gallagher, IDLES and The Libertines. And yet, the truth is, the songwriter before us today is a very different proposition to the one behind 2023’s 'A Fistful of Peaches,' let alone 2021’s 'Written and Directed' or the band’s self-titled debut of 2018.

Two years sober and enjoying a thriving career as a tattoo artist, Phillips is still a force of nature but has found healthier outlets for her boundless energy. Needless to say, it’s not been easy, but Phillips is reaping the benefits now, enjoying deeper levels of self-acceptance as a byproduct of all her emotional labour. In turn, this hard won virtue has paved the way for greater creative clarity, kickstarting the most compelling chapter of the band so far.
