Victoria Legrand’s voice is a powerful thing. She’s like if Nico and Grace Slick combined into one. As dream-pop duo Beach House coast into their 11th month supporting their list-garnering album Teen Dream, Legrand and instrumentalist Alex Scally showed their dynamic force on Conan last night. Beach House are always full of power, while still managing to wash over you with calm. A quick glance at the late night twitter feed showed mixed reactions to Beach House, from the obligatory ”killing of it”, to the unfortunately obligatory ”boorrring” (to the “can’t wait to go to my beach house for x-mas”). However their performance of “10 Mile Stereo” sounds just as exciting as when I first heard it almost a year ago, proving that the milage and exposure you get from an album may actually be a good barometer as to how truly spectacular it is. Watch the clip above.
