I like beaches, bunnies are cute, and I would love to find myself my own dream boy to make googly eyes at. Perhaps that’s why I found myself clicking on Beach Bunny’s Dream Boy when I encountered it on YouTube the other day, and boy, was I grateful that I did. The Chicago based indie pop band, who recently announced their debut album Honeymoon, charmed me to no end with their surfy pop and punky rock on the crunchy infectious, jaunty rollicking tune. And they’ve served the single up with a great music video too, inspired by classic teen movies. Beach Bunny’s inaugural full length Honeymoon drops February 14th via Mom+Pop. An extensive tour both before its arrival and after includes a stop at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco on March 7th. If you’re new to Beach Bunny like we are, you’re probably ready to explore more of their music. Check out Adultingbelow, which comes from their recent EP Prom Queen, which can be streamed in full, here.

Music you’ve probably or probably never heard before and I would recommend
Tally Hall: Band that basically made whatever they wanted until they stopped making music. really, they made hard rock, rap, and whimsical stuff all in one album. very Beatlesque.
Jellyfish: 90′s band i don’t know much about, but theyre similar to Tally Hall
Jack Stauber: The guy that made that Peppermint song and Buttercup(oh, I’ll do it sometime). he’s got a youtube channel with short little songs paired with claymation, vhs-type animation, irl video, all in one and more
I DONT KNOW HOW BUT THEY FOUND ME: They’re an indie band with a new-wave type feel. got dire lyrics and catchy, fun tunes.
Tori Amos: Alternative and punk artist that started in the 90′s and is still going. she’s got a lot of slowish songs and some upbeat ones; I recommend “Raspberry Swirl.”
Bryan Scary (and the Shredding Tears): the man usually makes music ALL BY HIMSELF, and occasionally adds other people. he’s got the piano playing of Elton John and the voice of Billy Joel. sounds like 70′s pop.
Cosmo Sheldrake: like the more whimsical brother of Hosier.
Beach Bunny: girl who writes tumblr aesthetic songs; gives you nostalgia from when you were never alive.
Studio Killers: masters of party music. You’ve probably heard heard them before, just didn’t know who they were.
Lemon Demon: Heard one of his songs. So groovy, I melted. same guy that made potter puppet pals. genius.
MIKA: reincarnation of Freddie Mercury.
Mother Mother: Haven’t heard much of them. “Oh Ana” is good for you if you’re interested in cool chords and anorexia(i think that’s what it’s about).
*Exception* The Beatles: Yeah I know you’ve heard them before, but just don’t let their music die. (Edit: disregard this one, I was absolutely obsessed with them when I posted this listen to the Who instead)
Arlie: Beatlesish nostalgia feel.
Jade Bird: Awesome woman on guitar who writes 90′s-type hits and throws you back to the 70′s.
Listen to them all, even if it’s just one song. Any additions?
