It's her bravery and openness that welcomes thoughts of other singer/songwriters (think Fiona Apple) who laid it all out seemingly without fear of careful ears.”

New Times

Bea

In the indie-folk pop sphere, Bea is a name that resonates with unfeigned sincerity, a trait as evident in her strumming as it is in her songwriting. Cutting her teeth in the vibrant Dallas music scene, Bea carved out a niche for herself, serenading audiences in everything from cozy pubs to grand stages, earning the privilege to open for icons like Norah Jones, John Mayer, and James Taylor. Her journey took a gritty turn in NYC, where subway platform performances were a means to an end, yet these humble stages only amplified her artistic spirit.

Bea's discography began with a self-released full-length album, “The Critics Call You a Genius,” and an EP titled “Somebody, Anybody.” Both works, characterized by their raw, unpolished authenticity, capture the essence of Bea's artistry —unvarnished, modest, and strikingly honest.

A detour into fashion design saw Bea stepping back from music. However, life's ebb and flow — marked by a sabbatical, motherhood, and a move to upstate New York — rekindled her passion for music. Bea's return to the guitar and stage was inevitable.

As a solo performer, Bea is known for her ability to weave emotive narratives through her songs, delivering each lyric with an understated yet poignant simplicity. She has shared the national touring stage with the likes of Rhett Miller (Old 97's), Chris Trapper, and Kawehi, showcasing her ability to hold her own in diverse musical company.

Her third album, "Old Habits," represented a significant leap as her first full-length studio-recorded project. Collaborating with Grammy Award-winning drummer and producer Brady Blade (Dave Matthews, Emmylou Harris, Jewel), acclaimed engineer Chris Bell (U2, The Eagles, Erykah Badu), and multiple Grammy Award-winning mastering engineer Gavin Lurssen, Bea elevated her sound to new heights.

Post-release, Bea embarked on a multi-year tour to promote "Old Habits." However, like many artists, her touring was abruptly halted by the pandemic, pausing her musical journey. As the world slowly returns to normalcy, Bea has resumed touring and is in the throes of crafting her next album, slated for release in 2024. This upcoming work promises to blend the nostalgic twangs of old country with the soulful depths of folk and the vibrant energy of indie pop, creating a soundscape that is both familiar and refreshingly innovative. Bea's forthcoming album is poised to be a testament to her evolving artistry and enduring passion for music.
