Biography

The Honeysticks is a Los Angeles-based indie band fronted by singer/songwriter and internet personality Ricky Montgomery (briefly called "Ricky Montgomery & The Honeysticks”). The band features Ben Russin on bass and Ryan Fyffe on drums. Caleb Hurst, former member and co-writer of the group, is featured on guitar and backing vocals on The Honeysticks EP and Out Like a Light 2.

Montgomery's first LP, Montgomery Ricky, set the stage for an idiosyncratic indie pop styling that lays bare trauma without mincing words. As The Honeysticks, Montgomery explores that core theme with greater technique and matured sensibilities. With their 2017 debut Out Like a Light, the band premiered a dreamy, boyish sound that distinguished it from other influencer-turned-musician contemporaries (Rich Brian, Tiny Meat Gang). Shortly afterward, with the release of The Honeysticks EP in February 2018, the collective doubled down on its hook-driven, sardonic perspective on the future of rock.

February 2019's Out Like a Light 2 reworked The Honeysticks' debut. An experiment in process and vulnerability during a time of brief hiatus, it garnered their greatest success yet with high praise from fans and their first Spotify editorial placement (Lo-fi Indie).

In May 2019, the band began road testing new material that saw them edging further into pop experimentalism. Shades of soul and surf have replaced the power pop motifs of Montgomery's solo effort. Now more than ever... it's Honeysticks season.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low
How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
