Honora is the debut solo album by Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea, released on March 27, 2026, through Nonesuch. It was produced by Josh Johnson. The album was inspired by Flea's love for jazz, and features six original songs along with covers of songs originally by Eddie Hazel and George Clinton, Jimmy Webb, Frank Ocean and Shea Taylor, and Ann Ronell. Flea provided spoken-word vocals, bass and trumpet. Thom Yorke and Nick Cave provided guest vocals. Johnson performed saxophone and keyboards, and the backing band features guitarist Jeff Parker, bassist Anna Butterss, and drummer Deantoni Parks, with additional contributions from Mauro Refosco and Nathaniel Walcott and two other members of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. The first single, "A Plea", was released on December 2, 2025; the release included a music video directed by Flea's daughter Clara Balzary. It was followed by "Traffic Lights", featuring Yorke. A music video directed by nespy5euro was released to promote the song. The third single, an instrumental cover of Frank Ocean's "Thinkin Bout You", was released on February 11, 2026. The album will be promoted by a short tour in May 2026. The album was named after Flea's great-great-grandmother and inspired by her difficulties with poverty in Ireland and her immigration to Australia. The cover art features a 1960s photo of Flea's mother-in-law Shahin Badiyan in Iran.
