Biography

Despite its summery name, Beach House creates music that is dark, dreamy, and alluringly hypnotic. Baltimore residents Alex Scally and Victoria Legrand (the niece of French composer Michel Legrand) formed the duo in 2005, with Legrand's hushed, Nico-like vocals and Scally's delicate instrumentation paving the way for their first batch of songs. Within a year, Beach House had charmed indie music enthusiasts across the blogosphere with its languid songcraft, and the eerie warmth of "Apple Orchard" landed on Pitchfork's Infinite Mixtape MP3 series in August 2006. Two months later, Beach House issued its eponymous debut album for Carpark. The band remained with the Carpark label for one additional album, 2008's Devotion, before graduating to Sub Pop and releasing Teenage Dream in early 2010. The duo built on the acclaim of Teenage Dream with 2012's Bloom, meticulously constructing a unified sound and vision meant to be experienced as an entire album rather than a collection of songs. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, Rovi

    Drifting in and out
    See the road you’re on
    You came rolling down the cheek

    Lyrics
    We were sleeping till you came along
    With your diamond heart
    You let us in the wooden house
    To share in all the wealth
    Don't you know it's true?

    Lyrics
    You go for a walk in the park 'cause you don't need anything
    Your hand that you sometimes hold doesn't do anything
    The face that you see in the door isn't standing there anymore
    In a matter of time, it would slip from my mind
    In and out of my life, you would slip from my mind

    Lyrics
    We gather medicine for heartache
    So we can act a fool
    It's incomplete without you
    The silver soul is running through
    It's a vision, complete illusion, yeah
