Since their breakthrough album Teen Dream was released on Sub Pop early this year (out locally on Mistletone), Baltimore dream pop darlings Beach House have become one of the most adored indie-to-mainstream crossovers of recent times. To quote a recent review from Beach House’s US tour with Vampire Weekend: “Victoria Legrand is arguably one of the most compelling, and most important, voices in rock. Along with her almost singular ability to sing grand orchestras all by herself, she has reached a point in her career where her command of the pathos of performance is almost unmatched by her peers. Legrand’s confidence in her own mastery of the Brian Eno-like feel of her songs was evident… Beach House is the perfect amalgamation of what indie rock is supposed to be: meaningful and beautiful, without forcing meaning and beauty on the listener.”
Beach House are the “voice” of Sydney Festival with Norway featured as the music bed for the beautiful hand-drawn animation television ad; watch it here.
