Mike Beck and The Bohemian Saints (mikebeck.com) is an irresistible old
fashioned guitar band, comprised of respected guitarist and songwriter,
Mike Beck, and San Francisco Bay Area guitarist, Tom Ayres, backed up
on bass by Marty Lydon, and on drums by Paul Montgomery. The band has
played together since 2002, and no matter where the band performs,
their large loyal fan base follows. They were recently seen at the 2009
Monterey County Fair.
Mike Beck is a popular solo acoustic singer songwriter who lives in
Montana and California. He has performed in over six countries, and
throughout the United States, and just returned some shows in from
Norway and Sweden. Mike is known for his memorable ballads that capture
old California, our world today, and the cowboy way of life. Two of
Mike Beck’s songs were listed in the “13 Best Cowboy Songs of All Time”
in the April 2009 issue of Western Horseman Magazine (“In Old
California” and “Don’t Tell Me.”) His song, “Patrick” was listed as one
of “The Top 15 Roadworthy Cowboy Songs” in the July 2008 issue of
Cowboys & Indians Magazine. His song, “Amanda Come Home” was
featured on NPR’s Weekend Edition, and is dedicated to all of the women
who served in Iraq.
The band was recently featured at the 2009 Monterey County Fair. Their
music is frequently aired on all five of the popular California KPIG
Radio stations (www.kpig.com) throughout California (including
Monterey/Santa Cruz, San Luis Obispo, Chico and the San Francisco Bay
Area) and via the station's popular Internet site. The music of Mike
Beck and The Bohemian Saints has also been heard throughout the United
States and internationally, including NPR Radio, CBC, Sirius and the
BBC, among others. Their enjoyable original material, primarily
composed by Mike Beck, reflects the band's love of the Byrds, Burrito
Brothers and the Rolling Stones. Their popular onstage live shows
reflect the energy of the Grateful Dead. The band's top professional
musicians provide outstanding shows in bars, coffeehouses, folk clubs,
schools, festivals, and at corporate events.
Born and raised in Monterey County, California, at age 13, Mike Beck
went to the Monterey Pop Festival and liked what he heard. He picked up
a guitar and never looked back. Since that time, he has been composing
and performing a wide array of folk, rock and Americana music. Mike's
songs reflect his life as a professional musician and a working cowboy
in Montana and Carmel Valley near Big Sur. According to Ramblin' Jack
Elliot, "Mike Beck plays the guitar like a Byrd. His strings do things
that mine could never do. They obey the slightest finger-touch commands
like a fine Reining Horse."
