Henry James Beach, born on March 9, 1942, in the charming city of Gloucester, has had a remarkable career as the long-time manager of the iconic British rock band Queen and its individual members. His nickname "Miami", a playful twist on his surname, was affectionately bestowed upon him by the band members.
Prior to becoming the band's manager in 1978, Beach served as their lawyer, acting on their behalf with expertise and dedication. This marked the beginning of a fruitful partnership that would span decades.
Beyond his work with Queen, Beach co-founded the innovative digital project, Transistor, in collaboration with Blur's Dave Rowntree. This venture showcases his forward-thinking approach to the music industry.
Henry Beach resides in the picturesque town of Montreux, Switzerland, where he shares his life with his wife, Claudia Beach. Together, they have two children, a daughter and a son, Ol Beach, who has made a name for himself as the charismatic frontman of the band Yellowire. Interestingly, Ol Beach's musical journey began as the keyboard player for the rock band Wire Daisies, a discovery facilitated by Queen's Roger Taylor.
