The Beauty Shop released their first album in 2002 (‘Yr Money Or Yr Life’; Mud Records / Shoeshine Records) and immediately garnered impressive notices in the press. From Champaign IL, this 3 piece have been compared with Nick Cave, Violent Femmes and The Handsome Family with a Leonard Cohen “bad attitude” vocal twist.
“John Hoeffleur is a cross between Beck, Johnny Cash and Leonard Cohen. His world-weary outlook and sharply observed lyrics are the reason for putting him the company of such a collection of greats.” -- What’s On London
“A record of such under-stated beauty that it’ll make you weep.” -- Hot Press
“The Love I Could Not Save contains more naked emotion in 4 minutes than most bands manage in an entire career.” -- Sunday Herald (4 STARS)
“Moody, wistful and melodic” -- The Independent (4 STARS)
