Today we launch BlackVesselEP.com to showcase Pearl and the Beard‘s beautiful new EP and this awesome live video for the title track“Black Vessel”. The EP also features one solo song each by Emily, Jeremy, and Jocelyn and we’re terribly proud of it. You can pick it up for a measly $3.99 at BlackVesselEP.com (or here of course) and we’d love it if you helped spread the word with a tweet, post or tumble. The video was shot as part of the Sleepover Shows in Boston.
