HoneyLuv is Taylor Character, a Cleveland-born, Los Angeles-based DJ and producer who came to music after college basketball and a stint as a drone operator in the United States Navy, teaching herself to DJ while stationed near Malibu in 2018. She broke through in 2022 with 365 (Thr33 6ix 5ive) on Chris Lake's Black Book Records, a playful, bass-forward tech house cut, and followed it with singles including This Is My Life (2024) and remix work for Jamie Jones. Her sets pull soulful, R&B-rooted house and tech house into a direct, groove-first style, and she has shared bills with Carl Cox, Seth Troxler and Maya Jane Coles. Recent live credits include a BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix in 2025, a sunrise set at EXIT Festival, a back to back with TSHA at ANTS at Ushuaia Ibiza and a Defected Radio takeover. She matters as one of the fastest-rising American voices in tech house, with a following rooted in Black queer nightlife and bookings now reaching festival and stadium scale.
