The Beu Sisters are a
pop-rock girl group from the U.S. state of Florida
. The
members of the group are sisters Candice (born 1975), Christie
(born 1978), Jiliane (born 1983), and Danielle (born 1987).
The
sisters were born in the state of New York
to parents
who performed on Broadway
, and from an
early age the girls were singing together. The four moved with
their family to New Smyrna Beach, Florida
in 1989, and by the end of the nineties, they had
formed an a cappella act. Desmond
Child, a noted songwriter, took notice of the sisters and
helped them ink a contract with
S-Curve
Records.
Debut Album
In 2002, the Beu Sisters' debut album,
Decisions, was
released. Nine out of thirteen tracks on the album were co-written
by the sisters. The album featured the lead single "I Was Only
(Seventeen)", for which a music video was filmed. To promote their
album, the Beu Sisters toured as the opening act on
Kelly Clarkson and
Clay
Aiken's 2004
Independent Tour.

The Beu Sisters can also be heard on various soundtracks, including
Disney productions the
Ella Enchanted soundtrack,

and have also contributed to the movie

Looking Ahead
Currently, plans are being made for a new Beu Sisters album. A new
song, "What Do You Do in the Summer (When It's Raining?)" was
released to radio in the summer of 2004. The group is still
performing at venues in Florida, though they took a break as
Christie Beu gave birth to a baby boy in December 2004.
