Biography

Beach House is a dream pop duo from Baltimore, Maryland, formed in 2004. The band consists of French-born Victoria Legrand and Baltimore native, Alex Scally. The group's self-titled debut, Beach House (2006), was critically acclaimed. This was followed by its second release, Devotion, in 2008.

The band released its third studio album, Teen Dream in January 2010, to critical acclaim and commercial success. Their fourth album, Bloom, was released in 2012 and garnered positive feedback. The band formed in 2004, composed of Alex Scally, who plays the guitar and keyboard, and Victoria Legrand, who sings and plays the organ. Beach House began as a recording project, thus, its music favored simplicity.

The band's music consisted largely of the organ, programmed drums, and the slide guitar.

The Groove
Groove by decade

The Groove is music.nw’s own measure of renown — not an opinion, a fact computed from the record. It weighs reach (how many people engaged) against acclaim (how highly they rated it), balanced so a handful of votes can’t outshout a lasting favourite.

Computed the NeuraWeb way, across the whole record. The same yardstick for everyone — which is why the little-known can out-Groove the famous in their own corner.

The trajectory

How Beach House moved

Genre belongs to the record, not to the artist. Every album’s Groove is shared out across the genres it actually is — by how the raters tagged it — so nobody is 100% one thing. Stack that by decade and a career draws itself.
