Baltimore duo Beach House craft delicately gorgeous dream-pop. Their sound hinges on two fairly unconventional instruments, slide guitar and organ, which lend their songs a lean, organic feel.

The duo, consisting of Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally, first garnered widespread success and acclaim with their third album, 2010's Teen Dream. This year's Bloom cemented their reputation as one of indie rock's best and most interesting young bands.

While in town for a sold-out show at First Ave a couple weeks ago, Beach House stopped by The Current studios to chat with Mark Wheat, take over our airwaves and play some of the songs they're feeling lately.
