Honk, Wail and Moan  is committed to the idea that guys and dolls need to go out, have a few drinks, dance with each other and snap fingers.  The cookin' rhythm section supports a hot horn section that backs up the always pleasing vocals that the band's audience has grown to know and love.  Since forming in the fall of 1991, Honk, Wail and Moan has entertained thousands of this earth's finest in many cities, over ten states (of the Union or of the Mind - you be the judge), and at least three countries and two continents with its mix of hot swingin' classics and jumpin' originals.  Honk, Wail and Moan has truly earned its name.  (How, we can't tell you.)

Honk Wail & Moan has performed at:
Southern Thailand Jazz and Blues Festival; Philedelphia Festival of World Cinema; Rhythm & Food Festival, Columbus; Jazz & Rib Festival, Columbus; Community Festival, Columbus; Greater Columbus Arts Festival; Cleveland Performance Art Festival; Avant Garage Film Festivals in Columbus & Cleveland; Living the Dream Theatre Columbus; Asylum Dayton OH; Barley's Columbus; Barrister Hall Columbus; The Canopy Club Urbana IL; Carmelita's Concina / Cadillac Ranch Bartlett IL; Clutch Cargo Pontiac MI; Counterfeit Heist Columbus; Dick's Den Columbus; Headliner's Louisville KY; Little Brother's Columbus; Madison Theatre Peoria IL; Maxie's Rendezvous, Virginia Beach VA; Pierre's FT Wayne IN; Silver Dollar Lansing MI; Stache's Columbus; Standard Club Chicago IL; The Swing Lounge Cincinnati OH ...
