Beach Fossils is an American indie rock band known for their dreamy, lo-fi sonic landscapes that evoke the mellow haze of a sun-bleached coastline. Formed in 2009 by Dustin Payseur in Brooklyn, New York, Beach Fossils began as a vehicle for Payseur's songwriting, melding the jangling guitars of '80s indie with a laid-back surf-rock vibe. The band quickly became synonymous with the DIY movement that swept through Brooklyn in the late 2000s and early 2010s, marked by an affinity for home recording and an ethos of creative authenticity.

With a discography that includes several well-received albums and EPs, Beach Fossils has built a loyal fanbase through their evocative melodies and introspective lyrics. Albums such as "Clash the Truth" (2013) and "Somersault" (2017) showcase their evolution from the minimalist arrangements of early singles like "Careless" to more complex and polished productions. Despite this growth, they’ve managed to maintain the intimate and personal feel that initially captivated listeners. In addition to their studio accomplishments, Beach Fossils are known for their compelling live performances, which manage to capture the haunting beauty of their recordings. The band's latest offerings, including tracks like "Bunny" and "Run To The Moon," continue to explore the emotional landscapes that have defined their work, cementing Beach Fossils' place in the indie music scene.
