The Conspiracy of Beards
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Conspiracy of Beards, based in San Francisco, California, are a 50-member a cappella male choir performing exclusively the songs of Leonard Cohen. Inspired by late artist Peter Kadyk and directed by Daryl Henline, the group performs gritty, uplifting renditions of Cohen's songs.
Started in June 2003 by Daryl Henline and Patrick Kadyk, the group has performed to enthusiastic audiences around the San Francisco Bay Area including the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Cafe du Nord and The Great American Music Hall. The choir has also been featured on Neighborhood Public Radio's West Coast Live, on KFOG-FM, and on PBS television station KQED-TV. In March of 2008 the choir released a recording to coincide with their performance tour in New York City.
Upcoming projects include a CD release in late 2005 and a European tour.
