Pōneke’s alt-folk songwriter Greta O’Leary releases new music video for her single ‘Honey Babe’

Awash in pastels and softness, soulful folk artist Greta O’Leary shares her new self-produced music video for Honey Babe. A shufflin’ slow dance with departure, this decided twist on the classic love song is a seductive, gentle farewell. “I knew exactly the kind of aesthetic Honey babe needed and we found the perfect kitchen to film it. I wanted the gentleness and nostalgia of the song to come through while still being a strong turning away.”

A gentle and timeless take on love and leaving, Honey Babe is the gift of goodbye, and the sweetest love song in reverse we’ve heard. This is the third single from her debut EP Treasure Horse. Recorded at Massey University Studios and Homerun Productions, with mixing by Toby Lloyd.

A self proclaimed dreamerand late bloomer, Põneke’s Greta O’Leary began releasing in early 2022 with her first single Outnumbered, charting on independent radio stations, and gained 140,000 views for its self directed music video. Her spacious and pervasive sound, held gently with a sensitive full band, centres her dynamic voice, soothing and disrupting us with stories of grief, love, and belonging, wrapped in nostalgic and archetypal imagery.

O’Leary’s debut EP Treasure Horse is out now.
