Best Coast On World Cafe (WXPN, 10/21/10)
Los Angeles is booming with artists specializing in lo-fi surf-rock and Best Coast is the trend's sweetheart. The trio's hazy and heavily distorted sound began with a collaboration between frontwoman Bethany Cosentino and multi-instrumentalist Bobb Bruno. With several 7" singles and EPs to its name, Best Coast officially became a functioning trio in 2010 when drummer Ali Koehler left Vivian Girls.
