| He can sell you a bill of love that from anyone else would seem corny and make you believe again - in the long summers of blissful youth, in dancing the night away. Bart Davenport grew up in Berkeley California. If you are on the west coast, you may have seen him fronting the electro future-funk trio called Honeycut. Perhaps you caught his one-man softrock show between the trees and beards of Big Sur or way over yonder in England or Germany. Most of all Bart loves to perform in Spain, where there is a unique appreciation for his melodies and moods – thanks, in part, to an earlier incarnation as a blues howler in The Loved Ones.In 2002, Bart’s self-titled solo debut put him on the map as a singer-songwriter and on the road as a performer. Bart’s eclectic style gave him numerous opportunities to share bills with a diverse roster of acts. He toured with Norway’s Kings Of Convenience and The Cuts, Oakland rock & rollers whose rhythm section sometimes accompanied him on stage. Game Preserve, his second solo album attested to Davenport's ability to lead a wide range of musicians in the studio. Released in Fall 2003 on Antenna Farm, Game Preserve featured accompaniment by members of Call And Response, Cake, Subtle and Dave Gleason's Wasted Days, plus rich vocal harmonies by The Moore Brothers and Nedelle. This, along with tight, no-nonsense, analogue production made the album both classic and pioneering. Never content to be tied to one genre, Davenport followed this release by contributing his funkier voice to DJ Greyboy's Soul Mosaic album, a college airplay chart topper in 2004. Then in 2005 came Maroon Cocoon (and the companion EP, Seal The Deal!). Bart played the majority of instruments himself this time, working on an eight-track, half-inch tape machine. The result: his most stripped-down, carefully honed work to date. Aside from a few guest musicians, Bart's friend and housemate Sam Flax Keener was the only constant presence, contributing his considerable engineering skills and a few riffs on various wind instruments. Starting with the wooden modernity of Bossa Nova as a bases, Davenport blends in elements of British folk, psych, 70s AM soft-rock and the occasional drum machine. Throughout, his primary emphasis is squarely on the art of the pop song.In 2006, after a stint playing bass for Persephone’s Bees, Bart Davenport, along with RV Salters and Tony Sevener released The Day I Turned To Glass on Quannum Projects. The three friends are currently performing live as Honeycut. Expect a few solo shows, including a tour of Spain and a new album from Bart in 2008.
