Product Overview
Honey Harper - Starmaker (Vinyl) Born William Fussell in 1989 in Adel, Georgia (a small town near the Okefenokee Swamp) HarperÙs family quickly relocated to Hollywood, Florida where he immersed himself in the arts more readily available in southern Florida: disco and country music. His father was an Elvis impersonator who introduced him to Waylon Jennings, Patsy Cline and Hank Williams and his mother watched ØGreaseÙ with him every month introducing him to his lifelong style icon, Olivia Newton John. At the age of 10, HarperÙs family returned to Georgia, this time to the suburbs of Atlanta, where he would spend his teenage years performing in both church choirs and punk bands. On the day of his eighteenth birthday, Harper left home, beginning his journey to become the Starmaker celebrated in his albumÙs title. The name ØStarmakerÙ is inspired by the Joni Mitchell classic ØFree Man in ParisÙ, which is an ode to the stresses of having to play the game of the music industry. Co-written with his wife, Alana Pagnutti, the album is not a commentary on MitchellÙs words but it explores similar ideas about fame, fortune and failure. ÜI'm the starmaker,Ý he offers. ÜThese songs are primarily about my journey to create them. The album as a whole, is about my relationship with my wife and loved ones in the search of this success and fame.Ý TRACKLISTING 1.
