The Beaches just served it up. Their sassy, unrepentant single "Blame Brett" is already a fan favorite, and after melting the Greek Theatre while opening for Girl in Red, the band is showing the world why they're the most explosive force in indie rock.
The most vicious track on an album packed with razor-sharp wit and the band's familiar swagger, "Blame Brett," transforms post-breakup frustration into a rallying cry, soaked in unshakable hooks and self-aware charm. The lush track blooms with the raw power of The Beaches' live shows, an intoxicating mix of angsty guitars, punchy drums, and the type of confident, shout-it-loud lyrics meant for a singalong. It's just the right balance of catharsis and good times, turning heartbreak into a bash you want to go to.
"Blame Brett" success proves The Beaches' gift for turning personal chaos into relatable gold. With their second album, Blame My Ex, serving up hit after hit, "Blame Brett," "What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Paranoid," and "Shower Beer," the band shows it's more than just a good time. They're so sharp and so full of fearlessness and undeniable charm.
As Jordan, Kylie, Eliza, and Leandra blitz through their latest tour, "Blame Brett" isn't merely a song. It's a movement. It is one where you can dance through your mistakes, scream through your feelings, and blame everything on Brett. And honestly? It feels pretty damn good.
