The Beauty Shop (i think this is my favorite review ever) John Hoeffleur is our leader! Urbana-Champaign, Illinois. In 1982 Urbana held it's first 'Sweet Corn Festival'. Now an annual summer
event, they celebrated the 160th anniversary of its foundation by erecting a new city clock, and in 1964 opened America's
second indoor shopping mall in Lincoln Square. No doubt the one Hoeffluer sings about on the new Beauty Shop album: "passed out underneath the disco
ball / that you bought from Spencer's at the shopping mall / the kids these days love rock'n'roll'" ('Paper Hearts For Jossie').
I've never been there, but picture Uncle Jessie from 'Dukes Of Hazzard' as a typical resident. It's a backdrop that explains a lot about where Hoeffluer and his band The Beauty Shop are coming from
– literally. Old-time charm the kids just love to kick against. Too many Buds on a Friday night, a smoke, skateboarding through the quiet streets or riding out into
the endless fields in beat-up pick-ups. And, of course, music. Somehow, though, they remain incredibly beautiful at the same time. Maybe because we see some of ourselves
in the music. And because the music itself is gorgeous against the weary words. Leader Hoeffluer is all wrong on the surface. A punk-rock kid from small town US of A, hair standing
on end like he's been rubbing balloons on his head, lumberjack shirt, jeans not quite meeting his DMs. Just as I want my geniuses to be: an endearing, affable guy who's had his
share of life, booze, relationships, places we've all been, but can encapsulate the tales into three minutes of punk attitude
to a country tune. When you see them play he shares a joke or several with the audience and
plays guitar like a demon, picking out the most sublimely delicate or most thundering of riffs naturally, and without fanfare.He's
cut from the same cloth as Josh Pearson, and has no ego about any of it. He just likes people to hear his music, and is appreciative to a fault.
Sincerity is a definite trait in both the man and his music. A sincerity that draws you closer on each listen or each visit
to see them perform. Debut album 'Yr Money Or Yr Life' was a classic shard of alt.country. You
really can take your Ryan Adams and poke him where the sun don't shine, boy. New album 'Crisis Helpline' picks up where it
left off: at the crossroads of Hope Street and Melancoly Drive. If there is any justice in this twisted universe, Hoeffleur will travel
the world playing to people that love his music forever more. He certainly deserves some love and attention. Hoeffleur's always had lyric writing down pat, knowing how to balance beauty and despair, dark drama
and dark humor. But with this release, you can tell he's been working on the musicianship--bringing his guitar playing and
melody crafting to a new level. As in the past, there are the melancholy ballads, such as "The Love I Could Not Save," but
there are also more catchy, upbeat hooks on Helpline. "Monster," "Paper Hearts for Josie," "Somewhere" and the thoroughly
infectious "Rumplestiltskin Lives" make this a memorable album. If more people had their hands on Helpline, it would
easily be recognized as one of the best releases of 2004. Happily, the band is currently shopping the CD to US and larger
UK indie labels for a more extensive release
ALSO IN THE HUB LOCAL MUSIC ISSUE by Eric Skalac The Beauty Shop’s dark flavor of alt-rock creep is as intoxicating as cheap beer on Halloween, their tracks lush with the dusky character of cornfield-country despair. John Hoeffleur and Co. play simple and moody rock with an attitude you can’t help but love, tripping through beautiful song-work without the requisite rock star arrogance. Find some reviews, I dare you. These guys are lauded like the Pope, and for good reason. Their fantastic debut album Yr Money Or Yr Life seems only to be surpassed by their most recent, Crisis Helpline, an album that’s had Hoeffleur called, “a songwriter with a Midas-like tough in articulating the pious nature of love and heartbreak.” That’s NME, folks. Beauty Shop, The Hazey Janes, Nice Man @ Stereo, 27/11/04 The headliners tonight, though, all the way from the metropolis that is Champaign-Urbana, Illinois,
are Beauty Shop, which comprises only two permanent members and a touring drummer. These two are guitarist/singer John Hoeffleur
and bassist Ariane Peralta, and their take on American folk displays a thoroughly modern sensitivity – not in the sense
that they have sanitised their influences, but rather that they take it as living style of music, not something that is sacrosanct.
Their sound, although fairly sparse, engages nonetheless, with its Southern-gothic tales of death, evil-minded love affairs,
sordid sex, bad drugs and paranoiac murder. Hoeffleur has talked in interviews about his influences being songwriters such
as Cohen and Waits, and there is perceptibly a mix of Cohen’s sophisticated miserablism and Waits’ manic groaning,
in the lyrical content if not in the music. His voice, additionally, is somewhat reminiscent of Waits’ ravaged mumblings,
albeit before it became a parody of itself. Hoeffleur holds to the melody fairly tightly, draping it over his nimble and energetic
acoustic work. Peralta and the drummer have the rhythm very much in their control, never letting it run away with itself,
keeping it lithe and mean. The set highlights include their current single, ‘Rumplestiltskin Lives,” an uptempo
rockabilly number which Hoeffleur introduces in his gruff, shy speaking voice, and the black-humoured murder ballad “Hatchet
Job” that follows (otherwise known, according to the drummer, as “the spooky one.”) Shoeshine Records have
done well to give their music a release in the UK.

The Beauty Shop: Back in Business:
In the space normally reserved for coffee drinkers and Mac-using grad students, the stage is set
for “Indie Rock Meets Urbana.” The festival-type line-up of numerous bands transforms Caffe Paradiso into a concert
venue for hipsters and C-U music fans alike. For many , this event marks the return of The Beauty Shop to C-U; their first
performance in nearly two years.
Singer/songwriter John Hoeffleur stands outside Paradiso holding his concealed beer beverage talking to old friends and fans about the band’s upcoming album and tour of England. For John, this is merely a return to the fold of C-U music’s scene and a chance to stretch his “show legs” before their trip across the Atlantic in August. “Here, we’re off schedule,” John said. “But there (UK), we are right on time releasing our new CD in a few weeks. It’s easy for them to think we’re a cut above the rest because we’ve made it across the Atlantic, but we’re really not that different than any other band.” The new album, titled Crisis Helpline, comes two years after the release of Yr Money Yr Life in England and four years after its American release. John talks about the C-U music scene, often making references to clubs, bars and bands that no longer exist. It’s this wistful “back in the day” attitude that distinguishes John as a seasoned performer in the community. But for those who only recently dove into C-U’s music culture, The Beauty Shop is usually referred to as “that band that did an awesome cover of The Misfits at The Great Cover-Up back in 2002.” John is most humble about The Beauty Shop’s accomplishments, saying that anyone with the drive and passion for music can do it. “We didn’t have to work for anything really,” John said. “All this stuff was handed to us and it just snowballed from there.” John’s retelling of the band’s history and his life with music is told with the same humility. John’s involvement in music goes back to his early teens. He said he picked up the bass in 7th grade, in admiration of Skid Row bassist Rachel Bolan’s nose jewelry. Once he made the journey from his hometown Arlington Heights to the University of Illinois in 1996, he found himself a member of Jove. As a freshman in college, he was playing bass with Garenne Bigby and Josh Augustine on guitar, and Brett Sanderson on drums. John found himself befriending members of The Blackouts as well as playing bass with them on part of their first record. He soon made the decision to focus on guitar, choosing to play what he called protest and political songs in the coffeehouse circuit. He met Casey Smith, who played drums for The Beauty Shop for two years, and the two recorded a demo called Grief EP. After a few talked-about local performances, the EP made its way to Parasol Records. John was offered the chance to record an album via Parasol. Simultaneously, they auditioned bassist Ariane Peralta who responded to a handwritten “bassist wanted” ad on campus. “We’re a meritocracy,” John said. “If you’ve got the skills to play, then you’re in. Ariane auditioned for us and she was it.” Ariane has been with the band since 1999 and complements John perfectly. She has an understated, more reserved personality than John, but when it comes to performing, she is right alongside him musically. The drummer position has seen the most changes, with four different drummers in five years’ time. “The package deal of the song includes everyone in the band regardless if you’re playing a barebones melody,” Ariane said. “Being flashy doesn’t equal sounding good, especially with our style of music.” Outside Paradiso, Ariane eats a sandwich and talks to a friend while John points out who he considers The Beauty Shop’s biggest fan, Chris Fairfield. Fairfield is pleased to see John returning to play live in C-U, and wonders what has happened in the past few years. The two talk music with John eagerly talking about his recent musical infatuations, including hardcore L.A. punk band Fear and the bearded classic rockers ZZ Top. “Can’t get enough of ‘em,” John says to Fairfield. Bands like ZZ Top don’t seem like heavy influences on John’s Beauty Shop writing style, and leaves one wondering if he is serious. Those unfamiliar with John aside from his music may think he sits around listening to dark folk singers like Nick Drake and Leonard Cohen, but he prefers to listen to whatever he likes, citing advice from a friend at Parasol. “Mike Roux from Parasol once said to me, ‘There are no guilty pleasures, just submit,’” John said. “Cool is an illusion and isn’t representative of what’s good.” “I still remember the first birthday party of yours we played at with people fighting on the fucking roof with swords,” John continues with Fairfield. Those lucky enough to see The Beauty Shop in their infancy know their willingness to play any venue, including living rooms and birthday parties. Fairfield happened to be a particularly lucky fan; the band performed at two of his birthday parties. It’s this down-to-earth attitude that separates John and the band from many other artists. Getting on stage at Paradiso an hour-and-a-half later than scheduled—”These Woodstock events are never on time,” John jokes—John leans into the microphone singing the theme song to Channel 3 WCIA, eliciting laughter from the eager fans. He is quick to thank everyone in attendance for coming. He stops to thank all other parties involved with making the show happen. Sure, it’s the typical crowd pandering seen at sold-out shows in Chicago, but with John, it’s real. “We always said, if there are more people in attendance than members of the band, it’s a show,” John said. “If there are fewer in attendance than band members, then it’s a practice. Either way, we could use it.” This performance is more than a practice. John’s easy-going personality and excellent conversation skills makes him a natural performer. For having not performed live in C-U for sometime, John is surprisingly at ease. This show reunites John with fellow Jove member Brett Sanderson on drums (the hardest working musician in C-U). It’s hard to believe this is the band’s first concert back in C-U, with their performance synching up for most of the show. As one would expect, the occasional slip-up occurs—John dropping his pick and accidentally unplugging his guitar, for instance—but overall, the moments of panicked eye contact between band members are few and far between. John is a natural performer with not one ounce of anxiety showing and a superb ability to make the crowd laugh. “We don’t have MTV dreams,” John said. “I want to connect with people at our shows. Having some melody that fucks with their head long after we’re done is a real accomplishment.” After the show, John and Ariane help Brett pack up his drums. They discuss how the show went and are relatively pleased with the first gig as the newly remodeled Beauty Shop. “John and I have been playing together for so long that toying with parts of songs comes naturally,” Ariane said. “Brett caught on real quick. His drumming is just what we needed.” The first record, Yr Money Yr Life, certainly contains a number of haunting melodies that stick in the listener’s head after one listen. The album received numerous positive reviews with many mentioning the lyrics in the company of dark American songwriters and comparing the sound to many alt-country bands of the ‘90s. “The first record is a picture in time for me,” John said. “Many of the songs are about mental health mostly; depression, heartbreak and drug abuse.” The new record was recorded throughout the past year with UK label Shoeshine promising to release it August 30 in England (still unsure about a U.S. release date). John said it deals with mental health but on a broader scale. He considers the album better in all regards, including production and songwriting. It’s more upbeat than the first record. “It’s still crazy to me we have this UK record deal,” Ariane said. “And that is the real deal. I would be a fool to pass up the opportunities the band has been offered.” “The way to get success is to focus on the moment,” John said. “Getting it right for the fans in Champaign is the start.” John continues with his modesty, saying that what he and the band are doing is nothing special. But recently, he discovered their latest single was the “single of the week” on Tom Robinson’s BBC 6 radio show. “I feel like a goofball Patch Adams saying, ‘Anyone can do it,’” John said. “A lot of kids have something in their head telling them they can’t play like me. But do you think Gene Simmons is any kind of genius?” "A dirty needle of delicious despondence shot through with rough, down-beat country. One hit will floor you for days.
Overdose and you may slip into the Beauty Shop's murky world for good" (Slant)
"Bleak and beauteous, slowed and catchy songs of hum, strum and pep" (Time
Out) "Enchanting...one of the genre's most inspiring collectives" (Teletext) "Sparse, poignant and sincere" (Classic Rock) "This could make you believe you are listening to country rock's answer
to Leonard Cohen" (Rock Sound) "Prowling through the darkest shadows of Americana, songwriter John Hoeffleur drawls his lyrics of bitterness, jealousy and downright orneriness over a battered acoustic
and loping rhythm section...a solid debut (Mail On Sunday) "With each of these tracks The Beauty Shop have hidden a piece of us" (www.bbc.co.uk) "Blessed with a natural sense of timing and harmony...satisfyingly downbeat but melodic" (www.americana.co.uk)
Shoeshine Records Revue - Live - Hull Adelphi, 16th July 2002 Review by Nick Quantrill A brief listen to the current Shoeshine Records sampler disc reveals a record label showcasing a varied and interesting stable of artists. Bringing together three acts, all with great records to promote, Francis McDonald (Teenage Fanclub etc.) proves that there is plenty of musical talent around if only the record company executives could be bothered to look for it. First act to take the stage was American singer-songwriter Major Matt Mason USA. With his unique brand of urban folk/punk material he kept the crowds attention throughout his forty-minute set. Major Matts songs displayed a touching honesty, with subject matter ranging from the deeply personal through to the comic. Despite his apparent unease on stage, Major Matt provided great thought provoking entertainment. Cork based Boa Morte showcased a different aspect of the Shoeshine label. Their slow paced, quiet material has a haunting quality that draws the listener in. The use of cello adds a beauty and depth to the songs to make them memorable. The headliners from Illinois, The Beauty Shop offered a more straightforward, traditional approach. Mixing pop, country and hillbilly to create their own toe-taping sound, The Beauty Shop performed an enthusiastic set to conclude a great nights entertainment. It was also great to see the musicians so obviously enjoying themselves so much and taking photos for their personal collections! As the music business continues to produce dull, soul-less clones to be forced upon the music market and the quick buck becomes ever more important, independent labels like Shoeshine Records should be celebrated and supported all the more. John Hoeffleur of The Beauty Shop is coming back to the UK in January
to coincide with the re-release of The Beauty Shop "Yr Money or Yr Life" album. His music is dark Americana - often compared
to The Handsome Family, Leonard Cohen and Tom Waits. The reviews have been great - "beautiful, perfect, essential...5/5" said
Drowned in Sound and "***ing excellent" said Time Out The Edinburgh Evening News wax lyrical about John Hoeffleur/The Beauty Shop: "THANK God for the Americana tag - that handy label for
all things that aren't quite country, not really folk and hardly rock 'n' roll yet emanate from North America. John Hoeffleur - Stange Fruit Club- The Spitz, London, 19th January 2003 Following the wildly eccentric but entirely pleasing Birmingham outfit Mistys Big Adventure, Mr Hoeffleur had an altogether more downbeat stage presentation, if only for the fact that he didnt have a lunatic in a vinyl costume with a hundred rubber gloves attached jumping about. Dont ask, but do venture out and take a look at Mistys if you get a chance, because the music is a lot more interesting than this, veering from thrash numbers to big funky ska slabs. As for JH, this time hes touring the UK without his band mates, and just with his acoustic guitar; the result strips the songs back to their essence, referencing folk and country traditions, yet empathetically more in tune with Gordon Gano, a light hearted Ian Curtis or a deeply fucked up mescaline-fueled male cousin of Rickie Lee Jones. There is probably no single artist out there right now who is as likely to appeal to the all-in-black teenage freaks, country heads and NME readers as John Hoeffleur- so many of the songs burn with barely concealed self doubt and anger, yet the music comes across like the sort of thing that EA Poe might have written had the guitar rather than the pen been his weapon of choice- theres a feeling that the melodies are somehow much older then their writer. This might make the whole thing sound terribly 17th Century and gothic, but there are flashes of warmth and light, and many of the songs are effortlessly catchy without any danger of being trite; there is pop modernity here as well as woe. My personal favourites- Death March and I got issues are on display, the former with its admission that of all the things I miss, I miss you most, and you get the impression that the narrator has been nursing his regrets for many nights and many bottles of whisky. How to summarise? If I had to make a sweeping statement, Id say that John Hoeffleur stands every chance of being as fine a songwriter as John Strohm, Andrew Bird or Brendan Benson. Watch this space and watch this man. MP The Beauty Shop

RELATED ARTIST ANSWERS SOME QUESTIONS www.parasol.com The Beauty Shop's John Hoeffleur and Casey Smith 1. Mixing session you wish you could have attended- 2. Songs you think you probably shouldn't like but just can't help yourself- 3. Favorite record that you can't find on CD (or CD you can't find on vinyl)- 4. First Concert- 5. Favorite Bass Player- After building a rabid hometown following, Champaign's The Beauty Shop recently released a debut CD (Yr money or Yr life) full of songs that would not be out of place on Handsome Family or Uncle Tupelo albums.
John Hoeffleur Finding out about John Hoeffleur of The Beauty Shop's set at the Adelphi (Hull's best live music venue, recent host to
several Elephant Six bands and well deserving of more support, just to get that in early) after an exam two days beforehand
was a pleasant discovery. The Champagne-Urbana, Illinois three-piece's 2000 album, Yr Money or Yr Life is a
masterwork of the embittered, sardonic and eerie-comic, earning comparisons with Cohen, Cave, Cobain, Tom Waits and the Violent
Femmes. It's been in my CD tray on a regular basis since I caught the band at last summer's Shoeshine Revue tour. I'd been
rather impressed (to say the least) by the full band back in August, and wondered about the nature of this solo show (it was
billed as a John Hoeffleur gig with "of The Beauty Shop" close underneath.
After an entertaining support set from Matt of Hull's own Edible Five-Foot Smiths, worth checking as a full band for their
unusual combination of Radiohead, Bossa Nova, and Canada asphyxiation alone (The Cooper Temple Clause and Truck Records probably
agree too) Hoeffleur takes the stage to a jam-packed Adelphi (in actual fact two of my mates have just gone to play pool and
they were about 15% of the assembled crowd). After inviting requests and thanking the audience for turning up he launched
into an excellent new (from memory untitled) song, slightly alt-country based with an air of rich, mellow desperation with
a recital of "passed out underneath the disco ball...kids these days love rock'n'roll" before launching into Hatchet Job,
a slanted blues number evoking, and possibly lyrically referencing Nick Drake with "the fruit that this tree bears is truly
strange indeed".
The following Monster references mental illness with a sublime unease, it's "your as good as dead...monsters in
your head" couplet combining with more disconcerting material. On request we get the first Yr Money... track
of the night, I Got Issues retains a sweaty, smirking whisky-drenched nastiness in this stripped down form. I can't
emphasise enough how superb irritated lyrics like "I wrote fuck on all my clothes, that's the life I chose, I made a monkey
out of me, but that's my ancestry...the only really perfect love is one that gets away" coupled with light hearted response
"so I got me my straw hat, and my bottle of Jack, and head down to those train tracks" are in the context of Hoeffleur's work.
In contrast his stage demeanour couldn't be more accommodating, there's a lot of interaction with the audience, and the three
or four fans present are fortunate enough to be seeing an artist they respect amenable to their request.
Dutch Courage shines with scathing comical cynicism. Anyone who's been called "Mr Whiskeyhead" might understand.
He stops between songs to note "In case you've noticed I'm a real bona fide American, so if you want to come up to me after
the show and ask me about the fascism over there go ahead...no I'm just kidding, maybe..." Other highlights include a contemplative
803 W. Nevada and more fraught new song Sly/A Desperate Cry for Help before Hoeffleur closes with Yr Money's
finale, Science Lights - tonight it's introduced as "a song about genetic engineering, I'm willing to take up the pro-cloning
position for the debate tonight". Played alone on an acoustic guitar it takes on an instrumentally mellow nature that surprisingly
complements Hoeffleur singing "Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, you can't conceal this suicide" particularly well.
After the show he told me the second Beauty Shop album should be out in spring or summer this year, and I for one can't
wait. Tonight he offers to play a Misfits cover set. As the refrain to Bloody Nose goes "Life's a bitch, and then you
die, but how long can it be postponed" - tonight's brilliance can't be summed up better.

And the Beauty Shop did a too-genuine rendition of Leonard Cohen, with an amazing version of "Everybody Knows" the highlight
of the set. The singer has a great gravelly deep voice ideally suited to the material, but without sounding like he's doing
a Cohen imitation.
DAVID POLLOCK The Bongo Club Next with the one-man-and-a-guitar show is John Hoeffleur, Metro, Chicago But the crowd closed ranks when The Beauty Shop took the stage. Another three-piece, this one features John Hoeffleur,
a vocalist with the deep drawl of Crash Test Dummies and the dark attitude of Nick Cave. Their set merged cowpunk attitude
with lazy strumming and a wicked sense of the macabre (see "Death March," which talks of licking a corpse's canteen and becoming
a ghost -- and should be a college radio hit). A quietly dangerous act, they didn't move much on stage, but Hoeffleur entranced
the crowd with his twangy guitar picking and wry recitation of "I Got Issues" and a jangly tale of "Dutch Courage." Bassist
Casey Smith anchored the right side of the stage, playing Kim Deal to Hoeffleur's Frank Black with her silently enigmatic
presence, adding a solid thumping bassline to move Hoeffleur's riffs along. --John Everson FROM THE PARASOL WEBSITE: Some bands put a picture of themselves on the cover. Some bands try to best express their visual
image through the CD booklet art. The mannequin flashing gang symbols on the front of The Beauty Shop's debut CD Yr Money
or Yr Life, and the accompanying faux horror show photos and fonts, give no indication of the trio behind the music. But maybe
it is a window to the soul of The Beauty Shop's songwriter John Hoeffleur. The lyrics to "I Got Issues" have me believing: I made a mountain out of coke/That I sniffed up my nose and I open my big mouth/And let my hatred out My first taste of the Champaign-Urbana based The Beauty Shop was the band's self-released (y'know,
burned 100 at home, then more, then more) Grief EP. The cover art was so disturbing I almost couldn't bring myself
to play the CD. While the little man on my shoulder whispered "don't judge a book, blah blah blah" I held out for a few more
days. When the local buzz got loud enough to drown out those aggravating voices I finally put in the CD andwell, it was quite
good. And listening again it was great. It kind of reminded me of Johnny Dowd's first album. Stark, dark tales of death, or
so they both sounded like to me. I forgot about "the cover" and at the urging of Parasol's headmaster Geoff, went to see them
live. He was right. They were great. And, how to describe great? The singer, and de facto bandleader, John Hoeffleur, has
some kind of charisma. It's the look in his eyes. The look of a guy who designed "the cover." John picks up The Beauty Shop story in his own words: "The Beauty Shop is kind of a weird band.
I mean, I'm a weirdo for sure, and it's weird that a regular guy like (drummer) Casey is in a band with me, because he's real
nice and I'm mean, and he's vegan and my diet is beef, exclusively. It's an odd match. Casey can build Robots, I'm a wizard
with cardboard. I built a few dogs to pick up girls with and a ten-foot tall piece of toast and two bong costumes for Halloween.
And then you look at (bassist) Ariane, who's from Indiana (!), is a girl, is Filipino, is 4'11 I think, and we're all playing
country-rock music or whatever it is. I use a beat up acoustic, Casey's got like two drums, and we're playing kind of sedate
music, and that was something really new to some people or something. The Grief EP was recorded at a time of pretty
dismal morale for various personal reasons, but one factor was certainly the slow death of Casey's cat, who during recording
lost control of one front leg. We just watched this poor cat kind of limply slide its front limb across the hardwood floor." Whew! Yr Money Or Yr Life contains tracks from the Grief EP, plus newly recorded
material. The Beauty Shop has been compared to Leonard Cohen and Uncle Tupelo, and cites Chris Whitley and the Gun Club as
influences. I stand behind the Johnny Dowd comparisons and love the ghost tales, the drinking tales, the death tales, all
of them. "Death March" can be sampled on Parasol's Sweet Sixteen, Volume 2. ALSO ON THE PARASOL WEBSITE: A message from John Hoeffleur: |
