Former pro surfer Donavon Frankenreiter rides a new wave on his sophomore effort. A change in labels from mentor Jack Johnson's Brushfire to Lost Highway finds the bearded, long-haired, doe-eyed singer/songwriter channeling his inner Talking Book-era Steve Wonder on this occasionally funky and consistently engaging keyboard-dominated album. His dreamy, near-falsetto voice floats through these soulful slices of pop perfection. The low-boil funk and nonchalant vocals sometimes recall Curtis Mayfield or Boz Scaggs in their casual, yet distinctive approach. An offhand natural warmth oozes from this recording that finds the singer and his band tapping an earthy groove. Nothing seems rushed or forced, as the musicians lock into the sunshiny, blue-eyed, melodic R&B vibe. A few more upbeat cuts like the irresistible title track and the riff-driven "That's Too Bad" might have added more supple firepower, but even the ballads connect with a rootsy low-key charm. Frankenreiter hasn't entirely forsaken his tropical beach-boy charm, as shown by the closing "Beautiful Day," but Move by Yourself is a refreshing twist that proves the artist is far more than a surf bum who picked up music to occupy his downtime on a rainy day. --Hal Horowitz

GOOD MELLOW TUNES.......2007-06-28

This is my first Donavan CD and I am in love with the soft mellow tunes that you could just sit and relax to. This will be the first of several cd's that I will purchase by him.

Chill and Funky.......2007-01-20

Chill and Funky... what elese is there to say? Perfect for a sunny afternoon hangin out, driving, relaxing. Donavon keeps getting better and better. Can't wait for the next one.

Good album.......2007-01-20

In my opinion, the most beautiful song is "The way it is" and reminds me Barry White's earlier groovy compositions.

Frankenreiter didn't disappoint.......2007-01-03

This is a bit of the 70's groovy music beat...but his soothing voice still comes through. I liked this one due to his voice and tone, but prefer his more folkish beats in other of his albums.

Awesome!!.......2007-01-01

Love it!!! Can't speak to the technical side like some of the other reviewers but just listening to the album makes me happy, it's nice and mellow and if you love Jack Johnson (like I do) then you will also love this album! Can't wait for more!!!

DF's break out!!.......2006-08-06

What an excellent dose of musical delight. I loved Donavon's debut album on Brushfire records. This album is a stand out on its own. Every track is played with heart and soul and I would recommend this to any lover of folk, jazzy, and good ole rock and roll!!

I love it!.......2006-07-09

I really liked the last album from surfer Donavon Frankenreiter but this one is more groovy. sounds little like jamiroquai now and then. Very relaxed.

Awesome Live Band.......2001-07-09

I saw this band live in CT and I feel in love with their original style and Shelly's vocals. Awesome CD that I would recommend to anyone. Definately feel good music.

Live Honey.......2001-02-28

This band rocks!!!!!!!! Great lyrics and rythms that keep you on the edge of your seat. The lead singer can sing her tail off!Turn up the volume and enjoy this wonderful CD.

Dis' bee one good CD.......2001-02-25

It's one of those essential CD's you take when you go on a long drive by yourself. I really like listening to Let Me Grow and Once in a While. Their music is distinctive and original.

Austin Live Music Capital.......2001-02-16

I'm always looking for great bands with a new sound. These guys ROCK. The leader singer is incredible. When I heard she went to school at The University of Texas I fell in love with her voice.

A Fantastic New Sound.......2001-02-13

Live Honey's Move Yourself cd is a fresh new spin on the music scene. Once you listen to it a few times, you get addicted! This is not a three chord band. There is definite talent here. But you have to turn it up loud! "Cinnamon Smile" is the song that drew me to it. "Once in a While" also has me hooked. Just give it a shot. Shelly's voice will keep you coming back for more.

High School Memories.......2005-08-21

Was in high school when this came out and my professor is a member of the band.... all I can say is this is so awesome I dont know why anyone wouldnt buy it and keep it forever.... mine got lost in a move around the country and I need another. Here I am happy as a clam to get it and about to see them live this week.

Rams Head Tavern Here I Come.

PUMPS YOU UP!.......1999-08-27

Great background for a party - sets the tempo ! A must have - Buffet fans try this one on for size!

Memories of Middleton Tavern and Midshipman days.......1999-08-26

This is the album that made it to Kosovo! As midshipmen at USNA my buddy and I would sneak out to listen to the band play on Monday nights at Middleton's. We're pilots now and still listening. I highly recommend this album to my Marine and Navy buddies to bring back great memories and to anyone else who enjoys really good upbeat country/rock. We'd love to hear from the band and and find out how they are doing and where they are playing.
