Drums
Beau has been playing the drums since he was 15 years old with a childhood ambition to one day be the drummer for Prince. Spurned from pursuing his drumming passion in high school band for the simple reason that he owned a trumpet, Beau eagerly learned the brass instrument and attempted to apply the rhythmic patterns in his band music to his drumset. Beau discovered Led Zeppelin and counts John Bonham as his largest drum influence. Other influences include: Miles Davis, Chad Smith, Matt Cameron, Sean Kinney, Billy Cobham, Schlitz, Newcastle, the New Orleans Trinity (Zigaboo, Johnny, and Stanton) and Vinnie Colaiuta. Beau has performed with: Psychedelicatessen, Punch Drunk, Voodoo Frank & the Road Dawgs, Uncle Nester, Silver City Review, Pull, Thread and the Rochelle Harper Band. Beau is a self proclaimed girl drink drunk and is notoriously terrible at giving a HIGH FIVE. His inspirational percussion stylings lay a solid and tight foundation for the Sticky Wigness.
