HONEY CONE

The music of Honey Cone ushered in a new, more assertive era lyrically for girl groups. They are first act to appear on the iconic show “Soul Train.” Honey Cone was formed in 1968 by lead singer Edna Wright, formerly of the gospel group The Cogics, along with Carolyn Willis formerly of Bobby Sox & Blue Jeans and Shelly Clark of The Ikettes. Throughout the years, Honey Cone has performed with some of music’s most celebrated artists, including Parliament Funkadelic, the O’Jays, Charlie Wilson, and the legendary George Burns. With such artists as Jay Z, Joss Stone, Common, and Taylor Dayne covering or sampling their recordings, Honey Cone’s influence is very much alive and part of the fabric of our lives.
