Beau, born Christopher John Trevor Midgley, is a British singer-songwriter and twelve-string guitar player, who first became known in the late 1960s through his recordings for John Peel's Dandelion Records label. He released two albums on Dandelion – Beau (1969) and Creation (1971) (which featured Jim Milne and Steve Clayton from Tractor as backing musicians on some tracks), plus the single "1917 Revolution" which had greater success abroad than it did in the United Kingdom. "1917 Revolution" is said to have been the inspiration for America's "A Horse with No Name".

Beau, born Christopher John Trevor Midgley, is a British singer-songwriter and twelve-string guitar player, who first became known in the late 1960s through his recordings for John Peel's Dandelion Records label. He released two albums on Dandelion – Beau (1969) and Creation (1971) (which featured Jim Milne and Steve Clayton from Tractor as backing musicians on some tracks), plus the single "1917 Revolution" which had greater success abroad than it did in the United Kingdom. "1917 Revolution" is said to have been the inspiration for America's "A Horse with No Name". His best known song however is probably "The Roses of Eyam" (written under the name of John Trevor) which folk singer Roy Bailey took around the world and which he recorded on his Hard Times LP in 1985. This version was subsequently re-released on Bailey's Past Masters CD in 1998. Beau himself released the song officially for the first time as a bonus track on the 2007 British reissue of the original Beau disc (Cherry Red), and on the 2008 Japanese release of the same album (Airmail Recordings). A CD of eighteen previously unissued songs – Edge of the Dark – was issued on the Angel Air label in 2009, followed in 2011 by the Cherry Red download albums The Way It Was and Creation Recreated. The latter was a remastered, partially remixed and much expanded version of 1971's Creation. Beau also contributed a previously unreleased song – In The Court of Conscience – to vinyl specialist Fruits de Mer Records' 2012 Annual, and a 180gram vinyl version of The Way It Was was issued by Ritual Echo Records in 2012. A download album – Fables & Façades – was also released in 2012 on the Cherry Red label. An unusual departure, this was made up of eighteen mostly full-band arrangements recorded between 1978 and 2000. Beau has produced several hundred songs - newly recorded albums continue to be released by Cherry Red for both download and streaming - and he has also recorded under the names of John Trevor, Trevor Midgley and Simfonica. Though mostly known as a "folk" performer, his writing has also been strongly influenced by blues and rock. He co-wrote "WARHOL – The Musical" with Steve Clayton of the band Tractor.

Beau (właściwie Christopher John Trevor Midgley), ur. maj 1946 w Leeds, Wielka Brytania – brytyjski muzyk folkowy specjalizujący się w grze na dwunastostrunowej gitarze. Pseudonim Beau wym. bou) w jęz. pol. oznacza „eleganta”. Beau rozgłos zdobył pod koniec 1960 roku po nagraniach dla prezentera Johna Peela. Nagrał dla należącej do Peela wytwórni Dandelion Records: dwa albumy Beau (1969) i Creation (1971) z udziałem i z brytyjskiego zespołu jako muzyków wspierających w kilku utworach. Prócz albumów wydał singel „1917 Revolution”, który odniósł większy sukces poza granicami Wielkiej Brytanii. Singel ten stanowił prawdopodobnie inspirację do powstania przeboju „A Horse with No Name” amerykańskiej grupy America. Najbardziej znaną piosenką Beau jest „The Roses of Eyam” (napisana pod pseudonimem John Trevor), wykonywana przez folkowego muzyka i wydana na jego albumie Hard Times LP w 1985 roku. Wersja ta została później zamieszczona również na innym albumie tego samego artysty pt. Bailey's Past Masters CD w 1998 roku. Sam Beau nagrał utwór o wiele później, został on zamieszczony w 2007 roku w albumie pt. Cherry Red jako dodatkowy. Beau nagrał kilkaset piosenek, nagrywał również pod pseudonimami John Trevor i Trevor Midgley.
