Beach House have released a video for new song “Alien”, an outtake from the 7 sessions that was originally released as a B-side for a limited-edition, tour-only 7″. It is produced by the band, Sonic Boom, and Jason Quever. Fans can purchase the physical single, which includes the album track “Lose Your Smile” on the […]
Beach House have now shared their video for ‘Chariot’; directed by the band, they have said that it is a rumination on the creation, cultivation, and confusion of narratives in media. Beach House Official | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram
On Friday 30th June 2017, Beach House will release their B-Sides and Rarities album via Bella Union; a 14-track compilation of songs from their career so far. The album features two previously unreleased tracks ‘Chariot’ and ‘Baseball Diamond’, which were recorded during the Depression Cherry, and Thank Your Lucky Stars sessions, both albums of which […]
American dream pop duo Beach House release the new video for ‘The Traveller’, taken from their latest record Thank Your Lucky Stars (2015). In this video, the imagery most definitely matches the loose socketed sound. Dreamy, slightly ethereal, Victoria Legrand’s vocal soothes the synth and guitar whilst the distorted 80’s VHS style movement unfolds. Directed […]

Is Beach House sticking two fingers up to the tyranny of change on their fifth album, Depression Cherry? Perceived wisdom maintains that constant musical transition bears the seal of authenticity. Arguably, titan, critically adored bands look like snakes constantly shedding their skins. The Beatles took a glorious trip from exuberant rock ‘n’ roll to the […]
Directed by Eric Wareheim (of Tim & Eric fame) and starring Ray Wise (Twin Peaks). On the video, Eric Wareheim says… “Beach House, Ray Wise, fireworks, and horses. How can I go wrong? This is the first project that I’ve ever collaborated creatively with the band. Victoria’s imagery inspired me to create this special half time show. It also helps […]
Beach House have just unveiled the short film Forever Still, a stunning 4-song live performance filmed in the desert around El Paso, Texas. The film follows the passing of one night, starting at sunset and ending at dawn. The band explain… “Forever Still is directly inspired by Pink Floyd’s Live at Pompeii. We wanted to […]
Following their recent sold-out UK tour and with a triumphant 2012 under their belts, BEACH HOUSE premier a new video for ‘Wild’, one of the many highlights from their fourth album Bloom. The intense and compelling clip was directed by filmmaker Johan Renck (Breaking Bad, The Walking Dead, Madonna, The Knife).
– The Ritz, Manchester – It’s hard to say why some shows work and others do not. Rewind two years and Beach House, a previously unknown (to me anyway) Cocteau Twins-esque act hailing from Baltimore steal my heart in Manchester Cathedral. The setting, the sound and the light show gel completely, and the band, riding […]
