The indie pop, Baltimore based band is comprised of Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally. The dynamic duo since 2004, has produced six studio albums: "Beach House," "Devotion," "Teen Dream," "Bloom," "Depression Cherry," and "Thank Your Lucky Stars."

Over the past couple of years, the band has been receiving more and more attention in the indie music world. Even when they only play venues equivalent to the size of St. Pete's State Theatre, the attraction the duo has creates the scene of artists at the arena level. The calm eeriness of the Beach House, makes them appealing and gets people hooked. In their live shows, "People hung on frontperson Victoria Legrand’s every word and gesture, laughing at her dumb jokes and cheering at the most innocuous details, from lighting changes to the first hint at what song might come next."

As I was preparing to go to a city where indie pop/alternative isn't the "norm," I searched around for new bands to listen to and when I came across them, I was instantly drawn in an have been playing them non stop. Aside from the music, from watching the live videos I have seen, the subtleness of their live shows and the focus on the art side of the production is what gives the Beach house the attention they deserve and makes them stand out.

Another capturing factor, like Twenty One Pilots, is the Beach House have been labeled indie pop and shoe gaze, but neither quite depict their sound. The music defines who they are and what they want to achieve and that shoes. Through the years their sound has gone from slow songs to even slower songs, but their music depicts love and death and is found as an escape from reality and is something you can loose yourself in.

They're a dime a dozen.
