House About Tonight Productions is thrilled to be bringing back to the 'burg the immensely talented duo of Beaucoup Blue. Beaucoup Blue is the Americana Philadelphia-based duo of David and Adrian Mowry.
Father and son have been performing their roots-based music nationally and internationally as a duo, quartet and on occasion quintet. Bridging many gaps in American music, their soulful traditional and contemporary styles mesh into an innovative and authentic sound. Although blues is a staple in their repertoire, they base their love in music from Folk, Soul, R&B, Jazz, Country and Bluegrass. All these interests and influences come out in their original songwriting in a unique way. A handsome range of instruments like six- and twelve-string guitars, slide guitar, and round-neck resonator guitar, combined with two soulful voices, encompasses a rich and honest feel, noticeably influenced by familial ties.
Beaucoup Blue had previously released two albums: Out Of The Woodwork, 2003, and Hearts At Home, 2005. The long awaited third album, Free To Fall, is produced by Grammy nominated Jim Salamone. The project features a world class rhythm section including Jeff Sheard on drums, Bill Zinno on acoustic upright bass as well as the extraordinary talents of a few friends. A guest appearance by Universal recording artist Melody Gardot, and the Americana Angels of Red Molly contributed their voices to this important work in classic proportion.
This very popular duo is back for yet annother appearance in Fredericksburg; please make sure to RSVP early for the eagerly awaited return of these amazing musicians and songwriters.

Wow! What a great show last night with David and Adrian. We had more than 50 people in attendance AND about half of them were new folks! Now that's the way this should work as we spread the musical gospel of the wonderful intimacy of house concerts. So many thanks are due, but most of all to the hosts, Jim and Debby, who graciously opened up their home for this event and who helped provide one of the best food spreads we have ever had. Emily, who helps with everything, and Scott, THE sound man in Fredericksburg. And of course, my husband and family for all the rest. Hope to see YOU next time!
