ZZ Top’s legendary drummer Frank Beard, the only member of the classic lineup without a beard, has died at 77, leaving behind a half-century of iconic rhythms that defined the band’s sound. A Texas-born powerhouse, Beard’s tight, versatile drumming powered 15 studio albums alongside Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill, influencing generations of drummers. He passed peacefully at his Richmond ranch, surrounded by family, as ZZ Top mourns the loss of a true innovator and son of Texas. Though the band has canceled some shows, they plan to return to the road this month — including a hometown stop in Austin, a city he called home. Beard’s legacy, immortalized in ZZ Top’s unmistakable groove, will forever echo through rock, blues, and country.
