Best Coast (Los Angeles, CA) [JAX PICK] Woods, Best Coast, Garbaj Kaetz, La Fog, TEARIST @ Echo Curio - $5 Best Coast is the new project of Bethany formerly of Pocahaunted and the multi-talented Bobb Bruno. Their droney lo-fi surf and 60s pop influenced tunes are the perfect fit for a summer night. Download "Something In The Way" below to see what I mean. Tonight they will be playing with Brooklyn psychedelic darlings Woods and experimental art punks Tearist at Echo Curio in what is sure to be a show Pitchfork staffers will say they were like "totally at" back in the day.
