NEW BEARD PREMIERE "DOOM" VIDEO, PERFORM ALBUM IN NYC



NEW BEARD is a real band from Brooklyn.  A really rockin’ creative band, with beards and a tuba and an incredible brand new album called ‘New Beard City.’  They also have a brand new video for lead single “Doom” featuring death by tomato and real rockin out.  See it here.  Led by former Arizona frontman Ben Wigler who co-produced New Beard's LP with Gustav Ejstes of Dungen, 'New Beard City' was recorded by the bearded weirdos in a cellar in Brooklyn and out now on Shoulder Tap Records (Wigmaker's Son).  ObscureSounds calls 'New Beard City' "One of the year's best debuts” and PopMatters hails it is “wonderfully unique, original, and strangely accessible.”

A live show that should not be missed, catch New Beard at NYC’s Mercury Lounge this Tues July 3 as they perform ‘New Beard City in its entirety at their Record Release Show.  Doors 7:30, Set time 8pm, 21+, tix $10   http://bit.ly/LgqmVb

There is no band like New Beard.  With influences from Elliot Smith to Megadeth and Japanese folk, these bearded weirdos are:  a hobbit with the voice of an angel (Ben Wigler), a virtuousic electric tuba player (Tuba Joe Exley),  a singly named lefty guitar wizard (Yazan), a Japanese singing uber-hyper drummer whose percussive performances on a custom-made glow in the dark drumkit are genuine religious experiences (Tony Waldman), and a sax blasting girl (Maria Christina Eisen).  August tour tba.
