Beth and identical twin Linda were born in Feb 1978. At age 14, Beth picked up guitar and Linda picked up bass, attending Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts in Dallas, Tx. In the fall of 1996, Beth headed to San Marcos, TX for Southwest Texas State University, and began playing with local Austin-area Teisco Del Rey and the all-female rhythm section The Del Reylettes, opening for Junior Brown, Los Straitjackets and Tito & Tarantula. Thru this band, Fender electric guitar strings endorsed Beth.
Back to Dallas-Fort Worth in Fall 2000 to attend the University of North Texas and play out as a sideman, playing with rock-ska band Alligator Dave and the Couch Band, Pakistani rock band Shor, opening for Junoon at the now bulldozed, but historic Bronco Bowl. Beth began co-fronting her own band at 22 with the Rattlesnakes, a blues group with Cricket Taylor on guitar and vocals, sis Linda on bass, occassionally backing up the legendary Sam Myers. During that fall of 2000, Beth also toured as a sideman for Shawn Pittman, until January of 2001 when a local blues DJ heard Beth and budgeted her first cd, Much Later For You, released independently to a few, but good reviews.
End of 2001, Beth joined the all-girl rock / punk super-group Girl, a club packer on the Dallas scene, quitting around the end of March to push her own band, when she was the cover girl, along with twin sis and big bro, of Buddy Magazine. That same month, Beth and Linda were featured as Women Who Rock on the Brook Mays Music website.
April of 2002 saw Beth doing a brief tour with Danny Federici of Bruce Springsteens E Street Band, playing the famous Stone Pony in Asbury Park, New Jersey. With her band that year, Beth opened for Los Straitjackets and Marcia Ball.
In October 2002 Beth paired up with the Rev. Horton Heat on Real Gone Lover forthe soundtrack of the Sony movie Auto Focus.
In March of 2003, Beth moved to Austin, picking up side gigs with Elizabeth McQueen (Asleep At The Wheel), opening for Radney Foster. In August of 2003 she joined with Stephanie Urbina Jones.
January of 2004, she focused on her originals and an all-girl surf/rock trio The Queen of Spades, playing locally in Austin with both bands, opening for Jimmie Vaughan, Joe Bonnamassa, Doyle Bramhall, Sr., and James McMurtry.
January 2006, her second album Addictions, recorded in Austin, Texas, released to worldwide distribution on the British label Armadillo. She also played with Steve Tenpenny, touring the TX Alt. country circuit.
