“Sweetness”
from the album Killing the Darlings
2011
iTunes

Brooklyn-based trio Pearl and the Beard (comprised of Jocelyn Mackenzie, Emily Hope Price, and Jeremy Styles) create a pleasing set of songs, each with elements of soulful gospel, indie-pop, and hints of vintage swing music. Cabaret fans will approve, as this is the kind of band that could open for Devotchka or Amanda Palmer and leave you lost in its simple, easily accessible beauty. “Sweetness,” from their upcoming album Killing the Darlings, is alive from start to finish.
