Beardrevered is very proud to be supporting The Viking of 6th Avenue Kickstarter project. The inspirational true story of Moondog, the legendary musician and New York icon whose life was an unexpected, outrageous adventure.

‘For over 30 years, one of the most sought out, recognizable figures in New York City was Louis Hardin, Jr., a towering Midwesterner, who stood day and night on the corner of Sixth Avenue and 54th Street, dressed in the early years like a monk, later as a Viking, selling poetry and playing homemade instruments. Blind and handsome, he called himself MOONDOG. Thousands bought his records, he appeared on the big and small screen and his picture was taken by countless tourists and famous photographers alike. But few have known his extraordinary, wild and surprising life story – until now!’

You too can be a part of this exciting project and help bring Moondog’s story to a global cinema audience. As with all Kickstarter projects there are some amazing rewards as incentives, including this limited edition print of the man himself. Click here to find out the whole story and how you too can get involved in the Viking of 6th Street.
