Southcoast Artists Index

Directions Website

Southcoast Artists Index Every Artist Has a Story - Start Listening! The Index will also contain information on Legacy Artists from our researchers and our readers.

The Southcoast Artists Index is a website project has three core components; the The Artists Index, a password protected webpage containing their biography, Artist statement, images or other documentation of their work which will be compiled into a growing directory of all Artists. The Legacy Artists are Artists from the area's past. The last component is more journalistic with the In-Focus Profiles, an online magazine containing articles about the Artists and the cultural and creative community written by our writers and contributing writers. Finally, the In-Focus Podcasts (and eventual video version) offers up close and personal conversations with the makers, performers, supporters and cultural impresarios of this remarkable creative community. In short, our ultimate goal is the documentation of the lives and activities of the individuals, both past and present, who represent the cultural and creative community and, who drive the local creative economy.

A lifelong musician bringing the energy of a full band to the Southcoast!

Raised in Southcoast Massachusetts, Eric Beau has been making music for more than 30 years. His musical journey began with a memorable high school talent show performance of “Piano Man,” which helped spark a passion that would follow him throughout his life. While attending Norwich University, Eric co-founded the band Old City Sound, performing at pubs and ski lodges throughout Vermont and opening for national acts including Dropkick Murphys, Our Lady Peace, and Lee Greenwood.

After graduation, Eric dedicated much of his career to military service and currently serves as a Lieutenant Colonel in the National Guard. Despite his demanding career, music has remained a constant passion. Today, performing as BEAU, he brings a dynamic solo rock show to breweries, vineyards, restaurants, and festivals throughout the Southcoast. Through professionally crafted looping arrangements, he recreates the energy and sound of a full band in a solo performance.

For Eric, every performance is about more than just playing music. His goal is to create an engaging, memorable experience that keeps audiences entertained and brings them back for more. With decades of musical experience and a unique approach to live performance, BEAU continues to bring rock energy to venues and audiences across the region.
