Bethany Cosentino takes everything us non-Californians crave during these cold winter months and shoves it in our faces. You and I both know we would too if we lived in sunshine all year round. But we don't. We see snow. Seriously, I feel like the only time I ever see those "Visit California" commercials on TV is during the dead of winter. Sometimes they really are tough to watch. And I have to admit when Best Coast shuffles its way into my ear-buds during these cold months I have to press next because I know that when I walk out the door I won't be wearing sandals, holding a surfboard on my way to the beach.
But despite the envy and seasonal ignoring I embark on every winter with Best Coast, that can all end soon enough. And I really shouldn't be complaining because this has been one of the warmest winters on record but, nonetheless when I wake up, I'm not in California. And its perfect timing for Bethany and company to release the some news about their forthcoming sophomore album titled "The Only Place" [I wonder what that's a reference too...] The album comes out May 14th and recently Bethany has been so kind as to release the album's and art work.
