Cosmopology
The Beauticians
Chamber orchestral pop music blended with quirky new wave and sunny melodies or maybe a cyberfolk pop quartet or maybe a rock band with viola and violin. ELO wannabees.

Description
The Beauticians are Vancouver's premiere cyberfolk pop quartet, featuring the songwriting of Beez (from the Smugglers) and Sexy Pierre Lumoncel (from the Hard Rock Miners). Embracing their natural silliness, they celebrate the lightness of living and the bittersweet pill of maturity. The Beauticians music is a blend of klezmer, chamber pop, quirky new wave, old time country and classical music mixed with "Doris Day" style four part harmonies. The Beauticians have been featured on CBC Radio show, Real Time, Radiosonic and Radio Escapade 3 times over the past 5 years.
Not only do the Beauticians enjoy performing, recording and creating their own music, they are deeply involved in the Vancouver music scene helping other musicians create original music.

Sexy Pierre Lumoncel
email: pierre@thebeauticians.com
The mystery continues as to where Pierre got his name, rumours abound everywhere on the planet. You can normally find him chasing a kangaroo who pinched his cup of tea or rocking out with Lara in the Beauticians. Pierre loves all kinds of music and can be heard jamming with all sorts of bands. Whilst in the tub he may be found to be listening to bugs bunny music, jazz swing, the Beatles any chance he gets, and a wide variety of other musical palette of sounds.

Lara
email: lara@thebeauticians.com
Just back from her semi-annual gig as lead violin at the Honolulu Hilton's weekend string quartet, Lara is a talented and mysterious musician. She was originally discovered by the Beauticians when she was performing with her 8 year old brother, in a bizarre new wave opera starring Lara playing Gepetto to her equally talented flute playing brother, Pinnochio. Bored with the simple life of a fringe festival entertainer, she ditched her brother, and decided to settle down in Vancouver.
