Best Coast have had a massive year; releasing their critically acclaimed sophomore album ’The Only Place’ (Popfrenzy Records). With the help of producer Jon Brion (Kanye West, Fiona Apple) the band bid farewell to the lo-fi haze that typified earlier releases, adopting a cleaner and more sophisticated approach.

‘The Only Place’ entered the US Billboard Charts at #24 with live performances on ‘The Late Show With David Letterman’, ‘Late Night with Jimmy Fallon’ and ‘Conan’ (O’Brien). The band headlined tours of North America, UK, Europe and Australia, with appearances on Metallica’s Orion Festival and Australia’s Big Day Out. Singer, Bethany Cosentino collaborated with iconic punk figure Iggy Pop on the song ‘Let’s Boot And Rally’ recorded for the 5th Season of HBO vampire TV Hit ‘True Blood’ and immediately after their upcoming Australian dates, Best Coast will open for Green Day on their US Arena tour in January 2013.

Bethany and Bobb return to Australia to play Falls and Southbound Festival plus two exclusive headline shows in Melbourne and Sydney over the new period.
