Coming into this show I was a little skeptical of how Beach House’s sound was going to pan out in a live setting. Their albums are the type of music that I study to or put on when I just want some quiet music playing in the background. It can always be dangerous for bands [...]

With Charleston musicians it seems very common and maybe could be contributed to a little Holy City Curse. I don’t really believe in the curse part, but after [...]

Well, here’s something even further away than Chicago. It’s in England. Haters come hate. I am going to England this summer to do some research and I will [...]
