History

Before Hunny formed, the members had been in multiple bands around the local area (notably with other members of Bad Suns and The Neighbourhood). They decided to join forces and form Hunny in 2014.

On June 17, 2014, the band released their first single "Honey Blonde" onto SoundCloud and Bandcamp, but was removed later on. The song has since been reuploaded to YouTube.[3]

Their second single, "Cry For Me", was released in January 2015 and became a breakthrough hit, gaining over 1 million streams within a year.[1]

On October 9, 2015, they released their debut EP, Pain / Ache / Loving.[4][5]

In 2016, Hunny released the singles "Vowels (and The Importance of Being Me)"[6] and "Colder Parts".[7] Guitarist Jake Munk left the band in December 2016.[4]

In May 2017, Hunny released their second EP Windows I.[8]

In early 2018, bassist Gregory Horne left the band.[9]

Hunny signed to Epitaph Records in July 2018, before releasing their third EP Windows II.[10]

On July 19, 2019, Hunny released their first full-length album, Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Hunny worked with producer Carlos de la Garza on the album.[11][12]
