Beau Hall sings, writes, play guitar, entertains with a why sophomoronic wit and insists that a small turnout to a show makes for an intimate setting, not a depressing show.
Louie Vallee saxohphones, percusses and propviceds the band with a rough-rebel element, missing in so many boy bands these days.
The rest of the Beau Show Stable is a constantly evolving mass of squid-like parts, oozing and morphing from one massive global conglomerate into another, presenting perspectives on rhythm and grooves where each evolution presents a new unique facet to the Beau Catalog. I brought my thesaurus to work today bitches.

Sounds Like
Beau Hall's music sounds like your mom in a comprimising position, three rooms away, while you help yourself to the cake and oreos from last-night's birfday party.
No, wait.
Beau Hall and That Band blend trashy porn funk, stone groove rock and louder than fuck guitars and vocals and drums. Okay, honestly, it's all loud as fuck. But that's a good thing, right?
Oh - you mean WHO do we sound like?
Maybe a little Sly, some Stevie, definitely some Prince and Stevie Ray, definitely some Stones and oh what the hell let's say there's a hint of Boxcar Willie up in this groove.
OH WOW THIS WAS AWESOME. 5 minutes before this show, I gathered the band and said "hey do you guys know Superfly by Curtis Mayfield?" Well. No. Ed (bass) knew the song, but beyond that, nobody knew anything about it, so I chirped out the drum line and said "okay follow me" and away we went. DAMN it turned out great. I love moments like this:
BEAU! The Beau Hall Tribute Band. After an illustrious career spanning many many weeks and sales of over ten discs, Beau Hall finally retired from the live music scene in early 2008. Luckily, rising star and Beau Hall impersonator BEAU HALL stepped up to form the Beau Hall Tribute Band. This band is so close to the real thing, you'd swear that Beau Hall is actually playing his classics!
Beau Hall's illustrious career is amazing. He's played with local greats like Andrew Black, Lola, Liz Melendez, and most recently, he's playing in the BEAU HALL TRIBUTE BAND.
I wouldn’t call this music Funk. I’d call it Groovecore; a heavier blend of funk that includes louder guitars, heavier drums. Sort of like, if Prince and George Clinton co-wrote songs with the Rolling Stones and The Ramones.
TALENT!!
Beau Hall took my ears by storm with his album, “Unh!” Funky, sexy and soulful, this is one CD that will stay in my car for a while. It is clear that Beau’s musical influences range from Prince, to Hendrix, to Jeffrey Gaines. The album opens with the fun and percussion-driven tune, “Whatchagonna Do.” As superb as the vocals are on this song, the instruments are just as tight. My favorite song on this album is “I Wanna be the One.” The creative lyrics and melody weave in and out of an acoustic guitar, build to a climax and then come back down again. “Sometimes I Cry” is the essence of true heartache and blues. I absolutely love the Hammond as it “cries” in the background.
This album opens an array of emotions and after all, that’s truly what music is about, raw emotion. From start to finish Beau Hall’s music had my fullest attention and I have the utmost confidence that he will grab the attention of others…..this music, this talent and this voice, cannot be ignored.
