Pearl and the Beard are cool. There, I said it. And when I say cool, I don’t mean “too cool for school”, not gonna talk to you at a bar, blowin’ through this little town straight back to Brooklyn, cool. I mean cool in the way that bands with three people who wear glasses are cool. Cool in the down to earth, funny, caring for each other, interested in what you’re doing, wanting to go out and eat Indian food after your session, way.
When people put on cute dresses for their Kitchen session and bring us cd’s and adorable tote bags (featuring three pairs of glasses!) and are really lovely and don’t mind standing around in a cold, damp backyard at night and then tell all their friends to tweet the hell out of their video once it’s up, they earn big points with me. In Pearl and the Beard’s case, they didn’t even need the points. Their music is so beautiful and interesting and unique that they could have been jackasses and I’d still have to tell you to check them out. Luckily for us they were just the opposite. So take a listen and watch their videos and keep your fingers crossed we can get them to come down here again and play a show somewhere fun.

Wowzers. Truly amazing stuff. The music videos rocked my socks off. You people are truly an inspiration to America during this Tough-onomy. God Bless, and Happy New Year.
