You're Reading :: News :: Pearl and the Beard Need Your Help To Make A Video!

Super excited about this! We’re teaming up with the Cobras who are responsible for the awesome Phoenix vs Bratpack mashup video below.

Dear Pearl and the Beard bestest friends ever (Are you still wearing your necklace? Because we are.),

We are filming a music video for our WILL SMITH MEDLEY, and we need your help!

In our song, dedicated to the artistry of dear Mr. Smith, we include 8 of his most beloved and well-known songs. We need 8 different locations to perform this song live to 8 different groups of people. Filming will take place in one day, guerrilla style, on Saturday, September 19. Think of it as a Will Smith Medley Musical Scavenger Hunt.

We are asking you, our most trusted allies, to choose the 8 locations at which we will perform and film the video. Does your workplace need a 15-minute Pearl and the Beard break?
Do you know a group of fireman desperately in need of a cameo? Does your boss’ birthday party need a surprise pick-me-up? Be creative! Not only will your idea be chosen if it’s totally awesome, but you, your grandma’s bridge class, your marching band troop, your co-workers, or your pack of Chesapeake Bay Retrievers will get to be in our music video! It doesn’t matter if people know Will’s work or not; in fact, it makes it more interesting if they don’t!

Your submission must have the following:

1. Name of location and address/description of location.
3. Contact name and phone number.
4. If your location is time sensitive (i.e., building availability, synchronization with crashing a pre-planned event, etc.), please include a specific time preference.
5. Tell us about your location choice, and why you think we should choose yours over someone else’s.

The Rules:

1. It’s got to be legal (sorry, kids).
2. It has to be on the island of Manhattan (sorry, Brooklyn).
3. Be creative! Want to wear wigs? Sport all blue? Choreograph a dance routine with The Rockettes? Bring your favorite Will Smith memorabilia? Teach a group of kindergartners the songs? It’s up to you!
4. Our rule: Pearl and the Beard has to perform our Will Smith Medley at all 8 locations within the course of the allotted time frame! Give us a challenge. Make us sweat!
5. 5. Send your locations to pearlandthebeard@gmail.com

LISTEN: LINK TO THE WILL SMITH MEDLEY!

Alright, get brainstorming!

The last day to send us your submissions is September 15th, next Tuesday!

With so much love it’s gross,

Pearl and the Beard
