Longtime Napa residents and businessmen Bob Vogt and Gabe Meyers think that as important as Napa County has been for the Bay Area in terms of food and wine, entertainment is extremely lacking. Meyers, a 42-year-old sports media producer, and Vogt, a 63-year-old lawyer and commercial real estate developer – he’s one of the principal owners of Napa’s Uptown Theatre – believe the city and region should represent more than a good meal and spa day. “You can only have so many great meals and so much great wine before you’re like, ‘I have to work [...]

Southern California duo Best Coast is friends Bethany Cosentino and Bobb Bruno. The pair met nearly a decade ago through the LA music scene and shared passions for art, food and local culture. Best Coast released their debut album Crazy for You in the summer of 2010, and the critically-acclaimed, Jon Brion-produced follow up The Only Place in the summer 2012, which placed on both Spin and Rolling Stone's Best of Albums of 2012 list. Their dedicated fan base continues to grow. With an impressive 100k Twitter followers, a simple tweet linked to a home recording [...]

Best Coast The Borderline , London Tuesday 18th September One of my main gripes with the internet is it’s passion for hyperbole. Seemingly every record is labelled “ album of the year ”, every song “ a game-changer ”. Every cymbal hit, chord struck or melody sung is deemed better than the one which preceded it. Here at GFP we promote new songs as “ the best new music ” because we genuinely believe that it is. However, even the best sites and magazines can’t predict every band [...]

Comenzamos esta semana, que coincide con el comienzo “oficial” del mes de septiembre –porque las cosas nunca pueden comenzar un sábado-, con nuestra lista de las mejores canciones de agosto. Entendemos que, en el breve lapso de un mes, pueden develarse infinidad de nuevas canciones que nos dejan un tanto mareados en el mundo de la música. Por eso, hemos confeccionado esta lista. Desde los excelentes The xx hasta el regreso de The Killers y Bob Dylan, pasando por el experimento electrónico de Cat Power y Florence Welch, aquí están las 10 mejores canciones del mes de agosto.

It's halftime in America... In fact, it's halftime everywhere. Half a year of music has happened and MTIB is here to let you know what albums are the best of the year... in our opinion, so far. Clint Eastwood is here too, but only because it's halftime. He doesn't have anything to contribute to our album list. Enjoy the list and feel free to share the albums you think we forgot in the 'comments' section below. Willis Earl Beal - Acousmatic Sorcery Chicago-native, discharged from the army for health reasons, previous Sears [...]
If winter is the time of year when single people scowl, forsake love, and slink off to that alone-time retreat they've created for themselves under the Manhattan Bridge out of watermelon rinds and Chinese food take-out cartons, then summer is when they thaw and renew their search for romance. They might make bold overtures to someone they've admired for quite while. They might even fall back in love with the idea of being in love. Recently, I found myself somewhere in the middle, entertaining a Lazy Susan of dates, each more hilariously terrible than the last. One way I've been [...]
Best Coast in matching denim jackets in the Californian sun? That's what happens in the promo vid for 'The Only Place', which is basically an advertisement for the Golden State. Ideal for a Saturday morning, you can watch it below. (PS I think I own that sea otter postcard. Just saying.) Click here to view the embedded video.
The BEST COAST partnership between Bethany Cosentino and Bob Bruno is just the right amount of “Summer”. The California proud, indie outfit have risen to new heights. Releasing a maturer sound to that of their previous album, Crazy For You , it is fantastic to see Best Coast keeping their passion alive in The Only Place (as reviewed HERE ). The focus on brokenhearted-ness paired with their pining for the Californian coast creates an exceptionally-planned [...]
Best Coast are back with another music video for their title track, "The Only Place", off of their recent release, The Only Place. You can see Best Coast this summer in Santa Monica Pier at the 28th Annual Twilight Concert...

You can download "The Only Place" for free by clicking here . It's the title track to Best Coast's latest album which is out now on iTunes UK & iTunes US .
" The Only Place " também é nome do novo álbum da Best Coast , que tem nesse seu primeiro single, agora com clipe. Clima bom, hein, nada a ver com essa chuva de hoje :/ Posts relacionados: [Single] "The only place", Best Coast [Video] "Whatever this is", [...]

We would venture to guess that most Californians couldn't tell you that their official state song is I Love You, California - a nearly 100-year-old tune. It seems that it may be time for the Golden State to go with something a bit more modern and edgy, especially given that Oklahoma crowned The Flaming Lips' Do You Realize as their state song back in 2009 . With that in mind, we'd like to make the case for The Only Place , the title track from Best Coast's sophomore album. The jangly surf-garage-pop tune is [...]

Don't know the last time I've been jealous watching a video, but Best Coast's "The Only Place," will come to mind the next time I go through this. Director Ace Norton has images of convertibles, sand, mountains, fireworks, and just plain old fun in the video for Beth Cosentino and co. The visuals can be summed up with a quote from the song, "Why would you live anywhere else? We've got the ocean, got the babes Got the sun, we've got the waves." Ask us that question again when it's winter on the [...]
Best Coast have come out with a video for their wonderful title track single, “The Only Place”. Bethany and Bob, who both don matching BC denim jackets, have one of the best days ever in their home state, compiling waves, oceans, babes and sun. You just can’t hate on all the cheesy and cheery fun the two are having, especially when there are cheerleaders and fireworks involved. Obviously, no one else in the world should show you around Cali, besides these two. On a side note, my crush on Bethany is getting bad. Pick up The [...]

Uma boa novidade da semana foi o lançamento do clip oficial do single "The Only Place", tema este que também dá nome ao novo álbum dos Best Coast, saído há pouco tempo. Na corrida para estar alinhado como um dos álbuns do ano, os Best Coast convidam-nos claramente para um dia perfeitamente preguiçoso e ensolarado. Adoro.
