Best Coast is an American indie rock duo formed in 2009 by singer-songwriter, guitarist, and frontwoman Bethany Cosentino and multi-instrumentalist Bobb Bruno. Hailing from Los Angeles, California, the band quickly gained attention for their sun-soaked, lo-fi sound that takes its core inspiration from '60s surf rock and '90s alternative rock, blending it with lyrical themes of love, relationships, and Californian nostalgia. Their music often embodies the laid-back vibe of the West Coast, delivering catchy melodies wrapped in fuzzy guitar riffs and a distinctly vintage aesthetic.

Breaking through with their debut album "Crazy for You" in 2010, Best Coast carved out a prominent spot for themselves in the indie music scene. Over the years, the quality of their work has remained consistent, as evidenced by releases such as "California Nights" in 2015, which showcased a more polished and expansive sound, to the more introspective "Always Tomorrow," released in 2020. The duo's musical journey also includes intimate live sessions, such as "Live At World Cafe," which captures the raw energy of their performances. With a penchant for creating infectious tunes like "Feeling Ok" and emotionally resonant numbers such as "Different Light," Best Coast continues to evolve while maintaining the core essence that initially endeared them to fans worldwide. Their ability to articulate the highs and lows of life in California, with a backdrop of unforgettable guitar hooks, ensures their place in the landscape of contemporary alternative music.
