HONKY: Texas Superboogie Trio Releases “Ain’t Got The Time” Video; March Shows Announced

Texas-based superboogie trio HONKY — featuring longtime Butthole Surfers/part-time Melvins bassist JD Pinkus, guitarist Bobby Ed Landgraf (Down, Skrew), and drummer Trinidad Leal (Dixie Witch)is pleased to unveil their anticipated video accompaniment to “Ain’t Got The Time.” Directed by Mike Holderbeast, the tune comes by way of the band’s Corduroy full-length released in 2016 via Housecore Records.

Notes Pinkus, “It took two-and-a-half years to complete this video and I still ain’t come down….”

Adds Holderbeast, “I’ve been a fan of HONKY since the early 2000s. I ‘ve worked with them on multiple occasions, mostly live stuff. This was the first time we built a video from scratch and it was a blast. If you can’t have fun with JD and the boys, then you obviously have no idea what fun is. I look forward to working with them again soon. Some really good times collaborating on this… Love me some HONKY.”
