Beach House//Gila

I missed a chance to see Beach House with my friend Ethan a few years ago and I still kick myself for it. I’m not sure when I’ll have the chance to see them again, but whenever that chance comes up (unclear from their site), I’ll definitely be taking it.

I’m a big fan of Devotion for its soundsets, which are at once lush and stark. So damn pretty, and just a little sad, I’m not sure you could really justify listening to Beach House in an actual beach house, unless it was a grey winter’s day on a northern coast, and you were planning on cozying up and zoning out to the distant sounds of waves crashing .

Hoping for the last ship to arrive,
I’ve been blessed with a kingdom, half-mine.
