Beach House, who play Cargo tonight as part of a European tour, are a dream-pop duo from Baltimore, Maryland who provide the perfect escape from what many Brits imagine must be a city full of corrupt politicians, drunk cops and lying journalists. (If The Wire is anything to go by, that is.) Beach House are the polar-opposite of David Simon's gritty realism, instead choosing to coat their lazy Hammond keyboard lines with echo, add chorus to their guitar licks and craft willowy, enchanting dream-images of songs.
