Best Coast Announce New Album The Only Place For May 2012 Release + Summer Tour Dates

Indie duo Best Coast are releasing their new album, The Only Place this May. They are also scheduled for a Summer tour. Read on for more information and dates.

Hailing from Southern California, Best Coast made a name for themselves with their debut, Crazy For You. Its members are Bethany Cosentino and Bobb Bruno. The two usually work alone with Cosentino doing the writing, vocals, and rhythm guitar and Bruno covering lead guitar, bass, and drums.
