BEARD

Here’s some video from last week’s Ottobar show.  The footage consists of the songs Florida and Lady Of The Castle, along with some head-banging and beer-spilling. Much love to everyone that came out and thanks to shawnavec for the vid.

We’ll be heading down south for the weekend and we’re taking drummer Sean Pumphrey of the Baltimore band Sick Weapons. We’ve added another track for the shows, a slow blues called Fanny Pack. The little girl’s been gone for so long, they just about turned her cable off, oh no, yes they did. Here’s a demo from practice the other night … [Fanny Pack]

Owen Lang has created another amazing Beard video, this time for our song Florida (he’s already done one for Midnight Tuxedo). We spent two days filming the slow-motion epic that features two bags of oranges, a tanning bed, a goldfish and Patti from Long John’s Pub. Patti was amazing, she executed every pursed lip and eye-wink with ease and grace. It was a pleasure to watch. And special thanks to Calabreses Hair Designs in Canton for the use of their solarium.

Beard is a power trio of epic proportions, forever in search of the unholy grail, the group marches steadfast towards a future of uncertainty. Consisting of Jason Dove (Guitar), Bryson Dudley (Bass) and Jason “The Butcher” Butcher (Drums), Beard displays power rock in a sensitive context. Born out of a desire to conquer and a love of finger-tapping, this band needs no invitation. Majestic songs drift through the listener’s mind like a magic carpet ride in a never-ending story. Laced with crushing riffs and tumultuous drum fills, Beard generates a positive outcome for all.

Here’s a few photos from the Midnight Tuxedo video shoot.
