She has quite a husky voice but I think she sounds wonderful. Walk In The Park is my favourite song and I'm looking forward to listening to their latest album.

Have you heard of a band called Grizzly Bear? She sang backing vocals on their last album and it was very good.

I've loved Beach House since their last album, Teen Dream. I fell in love with them after downloading 'Norway', which at the time was the iTunes single of the week. That whole album is amazing though, especially on vinyl!

I've been giving Bloom a good listen since it's release, it hasn't moved me like Teen Dream yet but i'm really loving the song 'Wild', it's stunning.

They are a very nice band musically but that's about it for me, did see them live a couple of years ago supporting Grizzly Bear and they were very dull live.

good to see some fans, i can understand why they might bore some people though too! I've heard of grizzly bear but i've never listened to them before... any songs of theirs to recommend?

I think 'Bloom' is really good and better than 'Teen Dream', I can't really think of a bad track on it. For me, most of 'Teen Dream' wasn't particularly memorable except for the brilliant '10 Mile Stereo' and a couple of others.

I'm not a massive Grizzly Bear fan but I would definitely listen to 'Veckatimest' before 'Yellow House', as they are pretty different albums. As for songs, I like 'About Face' from Veckatimest.

Like another has mentioned Veckatimest is the album to check out. More specifically listen to the song Two Weeks. Victoria from Beach House sings the harmonies and it really is a perfect pop song.

The singer does have a deep voice that sounds quite ambiguous, but it's a lovely voice. Beach House make very dreamy, relaxing music.

I agree. Deep voices on women can be great.
