Dirty Honey Deliver Modern Rock Muscle in Nashville
Marathon Music Works — Nashville, TN | April 8, 2022
Dirty Honey delivered a confident, high-impact performance at Marathon Music Works on April 8, 2022, leaning into a sound that bridges classic rock swagger with modern edge. In a room built for volume and grit, the band thrived—tight, loud, and unapologetically riff-driven.
The strongest reactions came during fan favorites like “When I’m Gone,” “Rolling 7s,” and “California Dreamin’,”each landing with punch and precision. Frontman Marc LaBelle commanded the stage with a natural, unforced presence, while guitarist John Notto’s blues-soaked leads cut cleanly through the mix without overplaying. The rhythm section kept the set grounded and driving, giving the songs weight and momentum without clutter.
Additional selections included Another Last Time, Down the Road, Heartbreaker, and Gypsy, rounding out a set that showcased the band’s growing catalog and reinforced their identity as a road-tested live act rather than a studio project.
The Nashville stop underscored Dirty Honey’s appeal: straightforward rock execution, strong songwriting, and a live energy that feels earned rather than manufactured.
