  • Bio

    ..San Francisco's Conspiracy of Beards is 20+ member male choir from that performs gritty, original arrangements of the songs of Leonard Cohen. In its 8th season, this a capella group has become an integral part of SF's folk scene, having performed at dozens of Bay Area venues, including the Cafe du Nord, the Great American Music Hall, and The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. The choir has also been featured on National Public Radio's "West Coast Live," on KFOG-FM, and on PBS television station KQED-TV. The group made its East Coast debut in 2008 at the Highline Ballroom and Bowery Poetry Club and has toured LA at The Mint, Ecoplex and other venues. Transforming Cohen's simple melodies into complex 4- and 5-part harmonies, the group achieves a sound that is both robust and tender. One can hear influences of indie rock, jazz, gospel, barbershop, classical and doo-wop in the unique arrangements the choir creates. Using the genius of Cohen's words, the Beards inspire their audience members to ponder romance, politics, sex, longing and spirituality, all amid laughter and cheers... ....NEW RELEASE NOW AVAILABLE AT CDBABY.COM!.. ....Watch a video of us on KQED's "Spark".. ....Visit our online photo gallery, and add some if you got 'em!..
