Video: Nudge, “War Song”
- story THE FADER
Gentle voiced Honey Owens (aka Valet) has coupled strum with leather drum twang for the group Nudge, who she often appears with. In this video for “War Song,” Owens wanders empires of vanity and McDonalds, interspersed with footage of bombs and a masked guitar player. Is this protest music or dejected acceptance? We’ll get back to you on that one.
Freeload: Valet, “Fire”
- story THE FADER
The FADER-RCRD LBL brodeo continues with a new Valet free download on their site. We did a story on Valet aka Honey Owens in FADER 52 and she was as awesome as the empty desert jams contained on her most recent album Naked Acid. She also loves her cats.

Gen F/Freeload: Valet, “Kehaar”
- story THE FADER
Right now—maybe in your city or town—Honey Owens aka Valet is performing as part of Bradford Cox’s traveling Atlas Sound show. That’s awesome and all, but on her own she creates sweaty, blissed out desert jams from a warehouse in Portland. We were feeling her upcoming album Naked Acid so we decided to run a Gen F on her in FADER 52 (on stands now!) Check the Gen F After the jump and download “Kehaar” from Naked Acid below.
