After getting the chance to talk with the delightful Emily Hope Price and Jeremy Styles of Pearl and the Beard , I was excited to see the band play in concert at the Music Hall of Williamsburg . They did not disappoint. Brian Bonz opened the night with a charmingly brazen set that mixed standup comedy with sugary songs about serious stuff. Franz Nicolay (formerly of the Hold Steady) delighted the audience with accordion, banjo, and guitar. With a waxed mustache, ostrich leather shoes, and a bottle of wine, he was part [...]

The Wild Honey Pie favorites Pearl and the Beard headlined Brooklyn's Music Hall of Williamsburg for the very first time last Thursday night. As usual, their set was a gorgeous, unique experience that lay somewhere between a joyous sermon and heartbreaking eulogy. Opening duties were tasked by Franz Nicolay (of The Hold Steady ), his bottle of red wine, and Brian Bonz . View Photo Album [...]

Anybody who might doubt whether the Get Up Kids ’ reunion tour has cultural relevance should have been at their concert last night. Clearly, there are still folks out there who live and die by Matt Pryor’s every word, and the crowd at Chicago’s Lincoln Hall was full of them. The Kids brought along two quality openers and then put on a nearly two-hour set full of new material and old favorites. First opener was songwriter Brian Bonz , who played a laid-back, radio-friendly iteration of guitar rock. He was backed by five other musicians, including [...]
photos by Andrew St. Clair New York Press: You guys reunited last year and now you've got this new record. Tell me how it all happened. Get Up Kid Matt Pryor: The band broke up basically because we were sick of each other... but the business of the band still existed. There were some tax issues that we needed to get everyone's signature for. So we went to Rob and [...]

The band shot the video in the woods outside their hometown, Mexico City, featuring bassist Armando Ortigosa in some incredible make-up, looking like a creature straight out of "Pan's Labyrinth." Swedish band Movits! are set to release their sophomore [...]

Brian Bonz - “Owl Prowls Elm Village” I’m very excited to see that Brian Bonz will be releasing his new album, Triborough Odyssey , later this month. He has definitely grown and matured on this record and I can wholeheartedly say I love the direction he has gone in. The music reminds me of Andrew Bird but the vocals are uniquely Brian. This could quite possibly be the album that garners the attention this talented musician deserves. One common thread between this song, and of songs past , is the slow build [...]

Brian Bonz is an experimental artist from Brooklyn whose gearing up to release a new album called The Triborough Odyssey . He has given away "Honaybee", a song from the album, as a free download, and I'm impressed with his natural ability to create clean cut melodies. Right away I was hooked. Quite a first impression Mr. Bonz has made on me. Hopefully "Honaybee" hits just as hard for you: [mp3]: Brian Bonz - Honaybee The Triborough Odyssey is due out on October 26th via Triple Crown Records [...]
