Beth Woods Live Music in The Green Room
Enjoy Beth Wood's "Quiet Listening Room" in The Green Room at the Arlington Drafthouse
Picture a home-body with an ever-present wanderlust, an introvert with a passion for performing, a creative free-spirit with enough discipline to rework her dream year after year, calloused little hands and a big pile of curly hair…and you’ve got Beth Wood, modern-day troubadour.
Picture a tumbleweed blowing across the plains of west Texas, and another musician-songwriter is born! Beth Wood began her musical journey in Lubbock, a high plains Texas town with a uniquely rich musical heritage that includes Buddy Holly, Natalie and Lloyd Maines, Mac Davis, and Joe Ely to name a few. When she wasn’t dodging tornados and dust storms, Beth was studying classical piano, violin, harp, and voice and contemplating the greatness of her Dad’s Willie Nelson records.
With grandiose dreams of becoming a musician, a baker, or a cowgirl, Beth left west Texas to study voice and piano at Brevard College in North Carolina. A detour from her classical studies led her to Austin, where she picked up a degree in literature and a guitar. Beth began writing her own songs and quickly discovered a feeling of musical freedom that she has been hooked on ever since. Sixteen years, thousands of shows, nine albums, three cars, and numerous awards later, Beth has never looked back. Beth's exceptional musicianship, crafty songwriting, and engaging, energetic stage presence have been winning over audiences from coast to coast.
“The Weather Inside”, Beth’s eighth studio release, is a case study in contrast. A coming-of-age statement record from a veteran artist, Beth’s latest work embraces strength and tenderness, the polished and the well-worn, the broken and the hopeful heart. Produced by Billy Crockett at Blue Rock Studio in Wimberley, TX, “The Weather Inside” delves deep into Beth’s creative reserves and delivers a strong collection of songs and performances to remember.
Beth is one of the featured artists on "Troubadour, TX", a nationally syndicated documentary-style singer-songwriter reality television series produced by Dallas based London Broadcasting and 41 Entertainment and airing in almost 40 million households and 140 U.S. markets. “Troubadour, TX” provides an intimate, behind-the-scenes look into the lives and careers of more than a dozen passionate and diverse singers and songwriters as they chase their musical dreams across the Lone Star state.
"Beth Wood is a musical triple-threat-a thoughtful songwriter and talented multi-instrumentalist with a supple, soulful voice." --The Wash Post
