Bio
Beau James Wilding is a solo artist from the south-central coast of California with a wide range of influences, including punk, blues, jazz and Irish Traditional Music. He has been playing guitar and writing songs since the age of fifteen. Beau’s intense emotional relationship with music was deepened after a disease left him “legally blind” at the age of eighteen on a backpacking trip through Europe. His lyrics are often introspective and explore themes of personal development, the immediacy of our one precious life and longing for connection relayed through a sometimes strange, sometimes dark and dreamy landscape of sound. Performances by Beau and his band are high-energy, emotionally-charged experiences that nod to the traditional ballad, express a gritty sense of determination and the heartfelt rendering of Beau’s unique storytelling through his vigorously raspy and unconventional vocal style.
Beau has recently begun to experiment with drone as a tool in music, inspired in part by the Indian tradition and the bladder-based instrumentation of Western Europe. The continuous hum of electric guitar feedback or the grind of the Shruti Box illustrate a continuum of sound that expands in all directions while staying firmly rooted in one unbroken tone.
An EP is scheduled for release in late May, 2024. Beau and his band play regularly in Southern California and will tour Ireland in August of 2024. Hope to see you out there on the road!
Beau has independently released three full length albums: "Violet of the Pacific" (2014), "The Amor Fati of Crazy Cloud" (2019), and most recently “seeing I god”, released on vinyl, CD and streaming in April, 2023.
