Honeywagon was formed almost during a secret meeting deep in the Hollywood hills. Bryan Clark , Ben Levine (Mo Levone), discussed the need for joyous yet subversive bluegrass over burritos and caffeinated beverages until daybreak.

By first light, Honeywagon had a mission and quickly found an untapped reservoir of Hollywood-celebrity types who were sympathetic to the bluegrass cause. After an undisclosed amount of recording gear, studio time, and various culinary delights from a plethora of Mexican eateries around LA, the CD was done. "Grass Stains: a bluegrass tribute to Blink 182" was unleashed upon the unsuspecting public.

Underground parties soon followed in Eagle Rock, Silver Lake, Pasadena, Covina, Santa Monica, Beechwood Canyon, Malibu Canyon, Runyon Canyon, 90210, South Central, the "OC", and the Inland Empire. Honeywagon ripped up the Sunset Strip playing The House of Blues, The Hard Rock Cafe, and other glamorous places with appropriately pretentious names.

The next CD came out soon afterward: "Green Day, Blue Grass: a bluegrass tribute to Green Day". This one quickly hit the Billboard Bluegrass charts and stayed on it for over 70 weeks! It has since become a cult classic and sold over 1M copies. All this without radio play, press reviews, tour support or live shows! How?! Welcome to the underground. We're glad you're here. Pass it along.

There are rumors in 2025 Honeywagon may return with another album to go along side their other classic releases the way only Honeywagon can - serious musicianship with an endearing sprinkle of humor and tenderness. Stay tuned!
