Beard Rock


a little-known form of music originating in the 1990’s as a throwback acknowledgement to the early folk rockers, (i.e. bob dylan, crosby stills & nash, etc. ). this style of music often falls under the label indie or folk or indiefolk, and is very prevalent in the pacific northwest. signed artists mostly belong to sub pop records, a label from seattle, washington. songs are laden with references to nature and personal philosophy of all aspects. the difference from regular indie/folk music is that each group tends to sport facial hair, styles including but not limited to: the chin curtain, grizzly adams, mutton/lambchops, or any other generally considered “unkempt” look. these artists emphasize the importance of the environment, overall camaraderie and independent thinking, making henry david th-r-au look like a demigod. examples of bands are: fleet foxes, midlake, the decemberists, band of horses, mojave 3 and many more. one thing is for sure though, the beard is key to defining beard rock.
fleet foxes singing ’round a campfire in the woods: pallid animals in the snow tipped pines, i find
hatching from the seed of your thin mind, all night?

astounded observer: their music is thoughtful and catchy, and their beards rival that of plato!

other observer: gotta love that beard rock.
