BETH is an up and coming acoustic band from Sanford, Florida. The music that this band composes and performs has a very stripped down and raw sound to it, add that to the rich vocals, melodies and intricate guitar lines that the songs carry and that gives the listener a uniquely full and beautiful sound.
The lyrics that the music carries are the product of both members of BETH, Ryan “The Check†Simpson and Shawn “Sloany†Milton. They both credit their lyrical talent and inspiration to God and His influence in their lives. The Check and Sloany both seek to not conform to writing lyrics without a message and feel that the best way to reach someone is not only to give them a great musical sound, but also lyrics that have to do with current issues in daily life, lyrics with a deep story line and personal application to one's own life.
“In this present world the only thing we seek to conform to is the will of God for our music,†says BETH.
Prior to forming BETH, The Check and Sloany had played with other various local bands for several years before teaming up and becoming BETH. “We feel that this is the best collaboration we have ever made to date in our lives, and we plan on seeing BETH through until the Lord says otherwise.†says BETH.
Currently BETH is experiencing a rapid growing fan base in the United States, at the moment BETH is preparing to release a full demo CD, as well as preparing for solo concerts in the Florida area while simultaneously working on putting together their first debut CD.
