AR ~ When Stars Align

AR (Alexander Reidy) has released his fisrt album “When Stars Align” for streaming and download on Bandcamp. We’ve whittled around 120 songs down into what we considered the best 12. Despite his struggles with ADHD and mental health, Alex has been working hard honing his writing and vocal skills over the past two years (and he writes a lot). Spending weekly one-on-one sessions in the studio with HBC producer Stephan Beattie experimenting, creating and recording; coming up with his original melodic hip hop sound; we think Alex has done something really great. He can be rightly proud of it. We are.

We hope you enjoy it; Introducing AR ~

APRA Art Music Awards Winner 2022

For excellence in music education

It is a great pleasure and honour to announce that Honeybee Creative has been awarded the National Award for Excellence in Music Education. Nominated, reviewed and selected by our industry peers, the APRA Art Music Awards are one of Australia’s most prestigious arts awards.

APRA Judges Report

“A thoroughly deserved winner who has championed the creative development of people with disabilities in the Gympie, QLD region and beyond. Moving to working online during (Covid) lockdowns, Honeybee Creative hosted their song writing and music creation sessions successfully through online mediums. The facilitation work by the faculty to take the creative thoughts, desires and actions of neurologically diverse people and lay it out in a form that everyone can understand is commendable. It is great to have this type of program operating within a regional area and the project outcomes demonstrate why art and music is so valuable for the community”.
