Sue Bee Honey and The Henningsens

NASHVILLE, Tenn.--()--Country music’s rising new family trio The Henningsens have partnered with a classic American brand, Sue Bee Honey®, America’s Honey® the world’s largest honey marketing cooperative and packer of 100 percent made-in-the-USA honey. Both have a deep pride in generations of family and honest hardworking American-made values and traditions, which are also represented in the band’s current Top 20 debut single “American Beautiful.”

“When we were approached about the partnership with Sue Bee Honey® we were so excited because our farm has been in our family for seven generations,” said Clara Henningsen.

“We have a really large family,” said father Brian Henningsen. “My wife and I have 10 children. We love the multigeneration aspect of farming and music. And that was a really good fit for us in partnering with and becoming friends with the folks at Sue Bee Honey®. It is America’s Honey®, an American company through and through.”

Henningsen also said, “The farm we live on has been in my family now for 142 years. The history, roots and ‘grounded-ness’ that it provides is very special to us. It’s a very special thing, a very American thing, to value that kind of multi-generational relationship and to want to build something that can be passed to your children as a heritage. It’s really cool to be in a venture with a company (Sue Bee Honey) like that.”

“It’s a natural fit for The Henningsens and Sue Bee Honey® to form a partnership because The Henningsens are an inspiring American band, Sue Bee Honey® is America’s Honey®, and together they are an ‘American Beautiful,”’ said Lisa Hansel, assistant vice president of sales and marketing for Sue Bee Honey®. “The Henningsens and Sue Bee Honey® look forward to providing their loyal fans and customers with 100 percent pure, all-natural American music and honey for generations to come.”

The Henningsens, consisting of Brian Henningsen and his son Aaron and daughter Clara, grew up on their 1,700-acre working farm, which has been in the family since 1871, raising bees, corn, soybeans and cows. It has offered The Henningsens a home and a livelihood, and at times school, playground, and even birthplace. The Henningsens’ fresh, vibrant and unique music, coupled with traditional values, are a natural alignment for Sue Bee Honey®, wholike the family trio, is committed to providing consumers with the purest high quality American made product, whether it be music or honey.

The Arista Nashville trio, currently on tour with Brad Paisley’s Beat This Summer Tour presented by Cracker Barrel Old Country Store®, recently released its self-titled digital EP release on May 28. The EP includes the band’s current debut single “American Beautiful,” co-written by Clara, Aaron, and Brian Henningsen and Brett Beavers.

“American Beautiful” is 17 and 18, respectively, this week on the Country Aircheck and Billboard country airplay charts. It is the only new-artist debut single currently inside the Top 20.
