What an awesome year this has been for new music already, and now we're getting a new single from from the almighty honeychain? The music gods have been kind to us! "Let's Get Pretty" is the first music I've reviewed from Hillary Burton and company since the summer of 2020. Lots of stuff has happened since then, and of course I've mentioned Burton's name a few times since she's one-half of The Trouble Seekers. "Let's Get Pretty" picks up where "Pocket Full Of Good Luck" left off, rocking quite a bit harder than honeychain's earlier releases yet still recalling the slice of '90s alternative rock that took its cues from power pop and punk. Co-produced, engineered, mixed and mastered by Michael Eisenstein from Letters to Cleo, this track manages to sound classic and modern at the same time. This is a little bit of a darker sound for honeychain, and it has a very contemporary garage rock edge to it. If The Go-Go's had formed 40 years later, they might have sounded something like this. "Let's Get Pretty" is a promising return from one of the best bands out there, and I sure hope there's more on the way!
