Singer/songwriter, Nancy Honeytree is a pioneer in the field of contemporary Christian music. One of the few female solo artists to emerge from the Jesus Movement, Honeytree's sensitive songs once earned her the nickname the "First Lady of Jesus Music." The bossa nova style "Clean Before My Lord" and the rocking "Rattle Me, Shake Me" became theme songs to Christians in the turbulent 70's.
"Many people tell me they were fans of Judy Collins or Joni Mitchell or Carole King, but felt they had to give up listening to the music they liked when they became born again Christians," Honeytree says. "Wow! What a blessing it was to discover that somebody was singing their favorite style of music for Jesus!" says Honeytree.
Today, Honeytree is still on the cutting edge with the emphasis of her concert ministry shifting to missions. She continues to play a variety of unplugged folk and rock music, accompanying herself with classical guitar. Grateful to have been a part of the Christian growth of many folks who were converted during the Jesus Movement, Honeytree's ministry stays "evergreen" as she challenges today's pioneers of the faith to keep pressing onward to their own frontiers.
