Fitzgerald & Beach is a blues based acoustic duo incorporating many musical perspectives. D.C. Fitzgerald plays guitar and sings, while Bob Beach plays harmonica and flute and adds vocals as well. They employ gospel, R & B, rock & roll, country and of course the blues in both original material and unique arrangements.
Bob and D.C. have been performing together on and off since the early 1970's, and truly appreciate and complement each other's musical talents. Fitzgerald & Beach released "Joyful Noise", a collection of spiritual and gospel tunes both original and from other sources, at the Philadelphia Folk Festival in August of 2004. They have recorded a new project to be released on BoneDog Records. Previous recorded works include Muddy Water Into Wine (2002) Blues, New and Used (1997), Old School (a collection of early recordings by the duo), and "Live DC."
Recent performances have included Northeast Folk Alliance Showcases, the DelMarVa Folk Festival, Calliope Folk Series, Three Rivers Arts Festival, the 2004 Philadelphia Folk Festival, Spring Fever Folk Festival, Forksville Folk Festival, Hickory Fest, Lansdowne Folk Club, the Point, Club Café, World Café Live and many house concerts and coffeehouses.
D.C. Fitzgerald is a veteran of blues and folk venues for over 20 years and has performed everywhere from Rome to Kerrville, Texas. In 1995 he performed in the Pittsburgh City Theater's production of Woody Guthrie: An American Song. The production was the taken on the road for a tour of the South and Midwest. D.C. recently produced a recording for Washington state vocalist Libby Goines, and has been involved in both performance and production duties for a number of other recording projects. His sideman credits include accompanying Tom Paxton. D.C. is based in Pittsburgh, PA where he teaches guitar, plays regularly and produces other artists.
Bob Beach's flute, harmonica, and vocal talents have been part of the classic rock band American Music and the Bob Beach Blues Band since the early 1980s. He also played harmonica on the Corbin Hanner Band hit "Oklahoma Crude," from their second album. Bob now lives in Philadelphia. He produced the Philadelphia Jug Band's first CD and has been playing with them regularly. Bob performs in the Philadelphia area on a regular basis with a number of different bands, and has been used as a session player by many local artists. Recently, he has been the musical director for the 1st Light Team Alternative Worship band of Lansdowne Presbyterian Church. This band has brought a unique sound to worship services around the Philadelphia area. The 2002 Philadelphia Folk Festival featured Bob's music in 5 different workshops. A Fitzgerald & Beach show features strong instrumental skills, innovative songwriting, years of performing experience and a unique presentation of the blues and its relatives.

Sadly, D.C. Fitzgerald passed away on November 13th, 2006. His obituary is here: http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/06320/738762-122.stm
This touching public guest book was attached to a shorter obituary: http://www.legacy.com/postgazette/GB/GuestbookView.aspx?PersonId=19928348I performed with DC Fitzgerald on the Woody Guthrie tour--he was the older Woody, I the younger--and found him to be the most generous, kind hearted man I ever met. He'll be missed. But hey, we have his music! It was an honor to share the stage with him and it's an honor to be on the Whoe Wheat Radio here with him.--Lawrence Bullock
