San Francisco's Conspiracy of Beards is a 30 member male choir that performs dynamic, original, a cappella arrangements of the poetic songs of Leonard Cohen.

Well dressed in suits, ties, and the occasional fedora, the choir brings an energized live choral music experience out of churches and tabernacles and into the taverns, art houses, and theaters of the West Coast and beyond. Transforming Cohen’s lyrics and simple melodies into complex 4- and 5-part harmonies, Conspiracy of Beards achieves a sound that is both robust and tender, exposing the emotion and comedy behind Cohen's words. This is not a Leonard Cohen tribute choir, but a unique and powerful elaboration of Cohen’s lyrical and musical expression.

Formed in 2003 through the inspiration of the late San Francisco performance artist Peter Kadyk, friend and composer Daryl Henline gathered a small group of friends to learn and sing a couple of Leonard Cohen songs as a tribute to Peter. Since then the choir has grown to over 30 members.
