MP3 – Beach Day : Walking On The Streets / Boys

Hollywood, Florida is not your typical beach town. The buildings, diners, and of course the beach appear frozen in the 1950’s. Probably a result of the town’s population boom happening in that era, a current drive down the streets feels like your moving through an R. Crumb drawing.

Things seem exaggerated and a bit odd. The now mature population seems a caricature of their former selves. It is this strange place, lovingly dubbed Hollyweird, Florida, that the trio Beach Day calls home.  Their sound is heavily influenced by their surroundings. They make new music, but it is definitely old at heart.  And it’s definitely sunny, but not without some murkiness.
