Pearl and the Beard – Brooklyn trio Jocelyn Mackenzie, Emily Hope Price, and Jeremy Styles return with their second full length of folked up smart/pop, following up their 2009 debut — one we called “jawdroppingly exquisite” — and last year’s Black Vessel EP // Release: Killing the Darlings (May 10, Family) // Sounds like: sophisticated, syncopated indie pop is heavy on twisting, catch-your-breath melodies and intricate jazz-styled vocal harmonies… // What we like: the shimmering, tumbling vocals of “40k”…the dramatic gospel-tent-meets-campfire-sing-a-long fervor of “Reverend”… beautifully melodic, glockenspieled nu-folk charm of “Prodigal Daughter”… http://pearlandthebeard.com/
