5 Best Beards in Music by Jeremy Sole
Jeremy Sole, KCRW DJ.
Sure, I could have chosen a profound subject for my Top 5 list – one that might allow me to wax philosophic on music, race or early changes in migration patterns of the snowy egret as an indication of global warming. But alas, I have been guided to crest a higher summit – a list of those who liberate their follicles in honor of the upside-down crown.
Whilst trimming off the obvious picks like ZZ Top or Matisyahu, and pruning away Joe Cocker and all sporters of the porkchop, I have shaved it down to five of music’s most notable chinstraps – from the bearish muzzle to the pharaoh-like obelisk. Because this was a tough one to shear down, I have decided to focus on those who have wholly represented the fuzz throughout the majority of their career. Being that I’m the self-appointed arbiter on this matter, I hereby denounce all accusations of favoritism!
