Pearls Before Swine Biography
Primarily the vehicle for singer/guitarist Tom Rapp, 1960s psyche-folk ensemble Pearls Before Swine were one the few non-jazz acts to record for the venerable New York City label ESP-Disk. Rapp's blend of revolutionary politics, surreal lyrical imagery, and an often numinous take on various folk forms relegated the artist to the outer reaches of the pop map. He made the jump to a major label in 1969 and recorded under the PBS moniker and his own name, but stopped playing music in the mid '70s to concentrate on civil rights law. Rapp was coaxed back to the stage in the early 2000s by a legion of new underground musicians deeply indebted to his music.
