Frank Beard, longtime ZZ Top drummer, dies at 77

Frank Beard ZZ Top rock drummer blues rock Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

Frank Beard, the longtime drummer for the legendary Texas rock band ZZ Top, has died at the age of 77. He passed away on August 18 while receiving hospice care at his ranch in Richmond, Texas, surrounded by his family.

Beard was a founding member of the group, joining in 1969 and remaining a core part of the band for over five decades. Alongside guitarist Billy Gibbons and the late bassist Dusty Hill, he helped define the band’s signature blues-rock sound and iconic image. Despite his surname, Beard was famously known as ‘The Man With No Beard’ because he was the only member of the classic trio who did not sport the group’s trademark long facial hair.

Following his death, ZZ Top canceled scheduled performances in Salt Lake City and Colorado Springs. However, the band announced plans to resume ‘The Big One! Tour’ this weekend with shows in Austin, Texas, a city Beard considered a second home. Michael Monahan is expected to perform as the touring replacement drummer.
