Their name conjures up what you’d expect “Beach House” to sound like – wispy, ethereal music that floats and swirls along, transporting you to a ocean side spot as you dip your toes in the sand, watching the ocean waves gently roll in. Next Tuesday, the Baltimore-based act will release their eagerly anticipated follow up to 2010’s critically acclaimed Teen Dream, with their fourth full-length effort Bloom via venerable indie-label Sub Pop. The album is currently streaming via NPR’s First Listen series. The dream-pop duo, who will play a record release party at New York City’s Bowery Ballroom on May 15, have announced the details of a month-long U.S. summer tour. The 16-date, cross-country run kicks off on July 1 at the House Of Blues in San Diego and includes high profile appearances at both the Forecastle and Pitchfork music festivals on July 13 and 15 respectively.
If you’re not into a night with the dream-pop act, then maybe you’ll be interested in hitting one of these recently announced tours…
