Tonight you’ll need to carry your butt on down to 1353 H Street to check out New York folksters Pearl and the Beard, at least if you know what’s good for you. Last seen opening for David Wax Museum at the venerable 9:30 Club, these guys put on a hell of a show, and as a bonus incentive, DC’s very own The Torches will be opening!
