Honer, Godwin team up on "Mr. Meyers"

Friday, October 11, 2024 – Evan Honer released a new version of his song "Mr. Meyers" featuring guest vocals from Charles Wesley Godwin.

The original version appears on Honer's latest album, "Fighting For," which was released this summer

"I first heard 'Seneca Creek' in 2021, and I've been a fan of Charles ever since," said Honer. "I had the pleasure of hearing him open for Zach Bryan in 2022 and was blown away by his stage presence, energy and how tight his whole band was. He's got one of the richest voices I've ever heard, and he's been an inspiration for a long time now. To have him on this song means the absolute world to me. I wrote 'Mr. Meyers' in my car outside of my college dorm. This song means so much to me and I am so honored to sing this song with one of my favorite artists."

"I've always been a fan of songs that tell a story, so when Evan approached me about singing on 'Mr. Meyers' it was an easy yes," said Godwin "I think it speaks to a sort of universal fear that people have but don't talk about much, similar to John Prine's 'Hello in There.'"

The second leg of Honer's Nowhere Fast Tour continues across the US this month, with several dates already sold out while others have been upgraded to larger venues due to high demand. It'll be followed by a batch of dates with Wyatt Flores in December, including shows at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, Brooklyn Paramount, and Boston's MGM Music Hall at Fenway.

Honer released his new EP, "Different Life," two weeks ago with four new songs. Over the summer, Honer also shared a reimagined version of his song "Fighting For" featuring a duet with Hailey Whitters.
