Pearl and the Beard announce inaugural UK Tour!
Pearl and the Beard are bloody excited to announce their very first UK tour THIS NOVEMBER! The tour kicks off in London, where the band will be opening for longtime friends Jukebox the Ghost. Then it’s two headlining shows in London (at a gorgeous old church where the acoustics blew Lauren’s socks off when she saw Bon Iver there) and Manchester; and a return to London, where PatB is excited to be opening for the very talented Amy LaVere.
