MC Honky
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
MC Honky is a stage persona whose only album release is I Am the Messiah. Although supposedly a middle-age disc jockey from Silverlake, California, MC Honky is promoted by and widely considered to be Mark Oliver Everett (or "E") of Eels. Aside from their commercial association, it has been noted that "E=MC Honky" bears some relation to E=mc².
To support the album I Am the Messiah, an actor would open Eels shows as Honky, to "prove" that he and E were two separate persons. E and MC Honky also engaged in a comic feud on the Internet.
The creator of the MC Honky artwork and videos is Ivan Brunetti.
