Country Honk is a four-piece honky tonk band proudly rooted in Cleveland, Ohio, blending classic country tradition with the raw energy of rock ’n’ roll. Known for their dynamic live shows and sharp songwriting, the band draws inspiration from legends like Hank Williams, Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, and Willie Nelson, while channeling the spirit of the country rock movement of the ’60s and ’70s.
With a mix of heartfelt originals and deep-cut covers, Country Honk has built a loyal following across the Midwest and beyond, and is now hitting the road for national festival appearances, including an official showcase at AmericanaFest in Nashville. Whether it’s a late-night dive bar or a sunlit festival stage, their sets are packed with twang, grit, and soul, connecting with audiences of all ages.
At the heart of it all is a deep love for the music and a no-nonsense commitment to the craft. Country Honk may be going national, but Cleveland will always be home.
