Beach Bunny Is Bringing Surfer Vibes To The Indie Music Scene

beachbunnymusic / Instagram

The indie surf band Beach Bunny has finally released their long-awaited Audiotree live session. Beach Bunny is the stage name of Lili Trifilio who plays guitar and vocals and includes Matt Henkels on guitar, Aidan Cada on bass, and Jonathan Alvarado on drums. Created in 2015, Beach Bunny has four EPs out and now a live session with Audiotree.

Personally, I recommend that you watch the video of their session because then you will get the chance to see how well this band jams out together. While watching I couldn't help but to feel the nostalgia of being in high school and being able to play in a band of people just having fun together. After all, this feeling fits in perfectly with Trifilio's description for their most recently released EP "Prom Queen" which is, "a collection of feelings from my high school diary."

Beach Bunny has been described as "Zooey-Deschanel-meets-the-Beach-Boys-type-vibe," but she describes herself as "sad surf honey tries to ride the biggest wave in the Midwest." This all makes sense when you listen to her music and feel the surfer vibes mixed with her upbeat power-pop melodies even if at their core her lyrics lay more on the sad side. If you're looking for something different than the usual sad, angry, indie song Beach Bunny is where it's at.

Recently Trifilio has managed to release both an acoustic rendition of the song "Boys" and a Christmas song before Beach Bunny started their tour with Field Medic, The Front Bottoms, and Manchester Orchestra. They also have a music video out for the song "Painkiller" that Trifilio describes as "someone being attacked by beauty standards."

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

13 Times April Ludgate Perfectly Explained College

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

1. When you have to provide an "interesting fact" for your first day ice-breaker.

2. When your professor is babbling on and on in his lecture.

3. When you edit your friend's paper and they get an A.

4. When it's 2 AM and you remember you have a test tomorrow.

5. When you finish taking the test and you're pretty sure you failed...
