Last week Claire and I, along with a mob of other enthusiastic fans, had the pleasure of spending the evening with Beach House. Just as a preface, sometimes the crowds in Boston are not that great, but Sunday night the ambiance was perfect. True to form, Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally spent over an hour crafting a swirling, engrossing, and melodic experience. While only occasionally allowing their wave of sound to actually crest and crash, Beach House constructed a groove that never let up. I barely felt the time go by. Standing amongst dreamy tinsley props, Legrand shredded on her keyboard throughout and when the crests came, impressed me with her chesty voice and ability to rock out. I was particularly struck by Scally's live, intricate guitar work that really is so essential to Beach House's sound. Friendly, talented, and fun - the show reinforced my growing obsession with Beach House.
