Local band Brilliant Beast (Hannah and Jordan Porter, plus Eric and Ronnie) opened up the show with a solid 40-min set.
As previously mentioned, the band has a shoegaze, a little psych rock to their music. They hardly spoke, except to thank the audience for showing up early… and that they were literally “from down the street”.
‘Other Side’ was dedicated to Kaylee, and they were really excited to actually do a “real tour” at the start of October in support of their new EP Jelly.
Best Coast is a duo of Bethany Cosentino and Bobb Bruno, but for their live shows, they’ve added drummer Brady Miller, bassist Brett Mielke, and keys/additional guitarist Joe Bautista, to their lineup.
Cosentino started her career as a child address, before her love of writing and performing music took over her career in the experimentalist drone group Pocahaunted. It wasn’t until she met Bruno that the two started collaborating with lo-fi demos and eventually started recording under the name Best Coast. Needless to say, Best Coast’s sound has elements of pop, drone, indie, and even jangle rock.
The duo actually haven’t released new music since California Nights (in 2015), but they were touring with Paramore, and saw an opportunity to book some headlining shows in some areas that Paramore wasn’t playing. Luckily that meant that band took over the Turf Club in St Paul on Monday night to a very happy crowd.
‘Boyfriend’ is undoubtedly the band’s biggest hit song to date, and, of course, they saved the song for nearly last on their set list.
