The Honey Steelers are a Lowell-based Americana band playing original tunes and reimagined covers from artists like Ray Charles, John Prine, Ian Tyson, Gene Autry, Pink Martini, Bob Dylan, The Band and The Beatles. They’ll have you stomping your feet one moment and humming a lullaby the next—often while laughing at their on-stage banter. Smart, soulful, and just a bit goofy. Band members include:BOB SEVIGNY - GUITAR, BASS, & VOCALS
Bob's been pickin' the guitar and singing in local Northeast bands for more than two decades now. Mostly in the Americana/bluegrass/oldtime styles. He once spent five years driving a tractor trailer around and is fond of the outdoors and fine cheeses.

RISA LAVELLE - KEYBOARDS, OCTAVE MANDOLIN, & VOCALS

Risa also performs as a singer/songwriter and is currently working on her first solo album.
HARVEY BAGG - BASS, GUITAR & VOCALS
While eschewing both the philosophic epicurean ideal, and the rigors of stoicism, Harvey spends much of his time exploring the neo-Platonic dichotomy. He also plays the bass, guitar, and ukulele. Currently Harvey also plays with The Bagg Boys and in the Bluegrass community in the Boston area.
