DOWNLOAD : Pearl and the Beard - "Sweetness" " Neverland's got nothing on the whimsical world constructed by Pearl than the Bear.

Words // Scott Pingeton Six months ago I was counting down the days to another Newport Folk Festival...and our Newport Nightcap afterparty. Putting together a lineup of four fantastic artists, organizing beer sponsorships, ticket sales, lighting/sound, coordinating with a venue ill-equipped for an event of its size and everything else that went into the party (not to mention holding down a demanding day job) was tough. But ultimately so so worth it. The party was a huge success - great music, a HOT, packed, sold-out venue and even a little mention in Billboard [...]
My top 3 albums of 2011 come as a bit of a personal surprise. It seems that I've turned from 'city slicker' whose lullaby is a police siren to bucolic gal next door who feels nostalgic at the sound of a country drawl and a banjo. 3. Sparrow and the Workshop - Spitting Daggers If you want folk and angst on the same platter then go no further than Sparrow and the Workshop's stunning second album. A collection that offers joyful peaks and moody troughs plus a sack load [...]
Holiday season is undoubtedly upon us, and we all know what that means... LOTS OF HOLIDAY PARTIES! While some people may have taken offense at the lack of "Christ" in Christmas (see Jon Stewart's take on the phenomenon), others are relishing the all-inclusive festivities, and none more than in the ...

While staying awake may be a necessity its hard to find the news cycle anything but dizzying. Yesterday's disaster again obscured by today's theatre of absurd. As if any of this has been good for the middle class. "Sweetness" from Pearl and the Beard "Oh My Word" from Buffalo Killers [...]
Pearl and the Beard es un trío de folk procedente de la ciudad de Nueva York. Ellos mismos se definen como "tres voces, un cello, una guitarra, un glockenspiel, una melódica, varios tambores, un acordeón, noventa y seis dientes y un alma", aunque esta rara lista de componentes no es tan interesante como su propia música. El grupo acaba de publicar un nuevo disco llamado Killing the Darlings que se puede comprar en distintos formatos a través de la tienda de su discográfica, The Family Records . Pero claro, antes [...]
Described as "three voices, one cello, one guitar, one glockenspiel, one melodica, several drums, one accordion, ninety-six teeth, and one soul," (let's add "one sweater" to the list), Pearl and the Beard is a three-piece folk act from New York City. Their latest album, Killing the Darlings , is a showcase of simple melodies which remain deep and moving alongside rich, fascinating harmonies. Their graceful songwriting is yours to behold in our exclusive download of the album track "The Lament of Coronado Brown". Opening with the lonesome and low pluck of Emily Hope Price's cello, the [...]

24 years ago today, the Earth shook, mountains crumbled, seas swelled, and, as a result, Eric Weiner was born to save us all from mediocre music. Tirelessly taking over car radios, making mix tapes, and sending out hordes of links for new bands, Eric has always done a fantastic job of spreading the word. As a way to say thank you to him, and make sure you've got some great tunes to listen to as well, each person at TWHP has shared a couple of our favorite songs that he's given us this year. Thanks for everything [...]
Raise your right hand in the air, put your left hand over your heart and repeat after me: "I love Indie Rock." If Indie Rock (particularly new Indie Rock) is something that truly tickles your pickle, then The Indie Sabbath has a present in store for you that will stimulate your senses in a new and tantalizing way every week. Sometimes we need a break from the everyday grind - the worship of a job you hate, your school which you despise and all those other systematic functions our society has been dragged in to. Let [...]
Pearl and The Beard at MHOW (07/07/11) Photo : D. Caplan Listen : Snakes - Whole Bunch of Chicken ft. Pearl and the Beard Pearl and the Beard brought the house down last month at their headlining gig at MHOW and they're about to take their show on the road again in support of their compulsively listenable new record, Killing The Darlings . Tonight ( Friday, Aug 12 ) they'll be at the (very swanky looking) Penthouse [...]
Looks like it's shaping up to be a poultry-themed day on MOKB. Allow me to introduce Brooklyn-based comedy/hip-hop duo Snakes . Having made their name in the sketch comedy group, Harvard Sailing Team, Billy and Adam, have decided to force their intentions on the song Douglas Douglas by Pearl and the Beard, and I'll be damned if the resulting Beastie Boyesque Whole Bunch Of Chicken isn't more fun than a barrel of monkeys. This finger-lickin' reinterpretation is included on the duo's new The Sleepover EP [...]
I only allow myself to buy one lunch meal a week and usually that means I get Friday's special buffalo chicken salad wrap from my local deli, which comes loaded with extra chicken. As I sat down to eat stuff my face with the sandwich, I got an email with a song called "Whole Bunch of Chicken" I got a little over excited, and was also wondering who was spying on me. Snakes - Whole Bunch of Chicken (ft. Pearl in the Beard) This song is a stomping [...]
