In the US, Bloom debuted at #7 on the Billboard Top 200 chart, and has spent the last three weeks at #1 on the CMJ Top 200 chart.

Bloom was co-produced by Beach House and Chris Coady. What people are saying about Bloom: “The two-piece dream-pop band wraps listeners in lush, expansive down comforters of sound."—Entertainment Weekly [30 Artists to Watch in 2012] “The music dissolves girl groups, minimalist patterns, rock anthems, drones and lullabies into a thoughtful stasis. Instead of seeking to create peaks and valleys, Beach House songs thicken without building up; they find equipoise and hold it.”—New York Times [Critics’ Choice] “The songwriting is tighter, yet the atmosphere feels more diffuse; the lyrics are more straightforward, yet they're somehow suggestive of larger things. By just about every measure, Bloom's wingspan is fuller than anything Beach House have done before.”—Pitchfork [9.1 “Best New Music”] “Bloom's songs are just as rich and meticulously crafted, and meant to be heard as a whole.”—NPR “Bloom is a masterstroke, an utter gamechanger…Bloom should be to the year 2012 what Loveless was to 1991, or Yankee Hotel Foxtrot was to 2002, or Funeral was to 2004: a landmark release.”—PopMatters [10/10] Tour Dates (Buy tickets here) Jun. 07 – Blarritz, FR – L'Atabal Jun. 08/09 – Porto, PT – Primavera Festival (evening) Jul. 01 – San Diego, CA – House of Blues* Jul. 03 – Los Angeles, CA – El Rey Theatre* Jul. 06 – Aspen, CO – Belly Up Aspen * Jul. 07 – Albuquerque, NM – Sunshine Theater * Jul. 09 – Tulsa, OK – Cain’s Ballroom * Jul. 10 – Lawrence, KS – Liberty Hall * Jul. 11 – St. Louis, MO – The Pageant * Jul. 12 – Memphis, TN – Inglewood Hall * Jul. 13 – Louisville, KY – Forestcastle Festival * Jul. 15 – Chicago, IL – Pitchfork Music Festival Jul. 17 – Indianapolis, IN – The Vogue * Jul. 18 – Pontiac, MI – The Crofoot Ballroom * Jul. 19 – Cleveland, OH – House of Blues Tickets  * Jul. 20 – Columbus, OH  – Newport Music Hall * Jul. 21 – Pittsburgh, PA – Mr. Small’s Theatre * Jul. 23 – New York, NY – Central Park Summerstage Aug. 24 – Katowice, PL – Tauron Nowan Muzyka Fest Aug. 26 – Paris, FR – Rock en Seine Aug. 27 – Groningen, NL – Vera Aug. 28 – Duisburg, DE – Grammatikoff Aug. 29 – Frankfurt, DE – Das Bett Aug. 31 – Dorset, UK – End of the Road Festival Frightened Eyes 2012 Tour Sep. 13 ­– Richmond, VA – The National Sep. 14 – Knoxville, TN – Bijou Theatre Sep. 15 – Nashville, TN – Marathon Music Works Sep. 16 – Atlanta, GA – Variety Sep. 18 – New Orleans, LA – Tipitina’s Sep. 19 – Houston, TX – House of Blues Sep. 20 – Austin, TX – Emo’s East Sep. 21 – Dallas, TX – Palladium Sep. 24 – Tucson, AZ – Rialto Sep. 25 – Los Angeles, CA – The Wiltern Sep. 28 – Oakland, CA – Fox Theater Sep. 29 – Eugene, OR – McDonald Theatre Sep. 30 – Portland, OR – Roseland Oct. 01 – Vancouver, BC – Commodore Ballroom Oct. 05 – Boise, ID – Egyptian Theatre  Oct. 04 – Seattle, WA – Showbox @ The Market Oct. 07 – Boulder, CO – Boulder Theater Oct. 09 – Minneapolis, MN – First Ave. Oct. 10 – Milwaukee, WI – Pabst Theatre Oct. 11 – Chicago, IL – Riviera Oct. 13 – Toronto, ON – Kool Haus Oct. 15 – Boston, MA – Wilbur Theatre Oct. 16 – Philadelphia, PA – Union Transfer Oct. 17 – Washington DC – 930 Club Oct. 26 – Belfast, UK – Mandela Hall Oct. 27 – Cork, IE – Cork Opera House Oct. 28 – Dublin, IE – Vicar Street Oct. 29 - Glasgow, UK – Arches Oct. 30 – Leeds, UK – Stylus Oct. 31 – Manchester, UK – Ritz Nov. 02 – London, UK – Roundhouse Nov. 03 – Bristol, UK – Anson Rooms Nov. 05 – Hamburg, DE – Kampnagel K2 Nov. 06 – Copenhagen, DK – Vega Nov. 07 – Stockholm, SE – Berns Nov. 08 – Oslo, NO – Sentrum Scene Nov. 10 – Berlin, DE – Astra Nov. 12 – Prague, CZ – Meetfactory Nov. 13 – Vienna, AT – Flex Nov. 14 - Munich, DE – Feierwerk Nov. 16 – Köln, DE– Gloria Nov. 17 – Lausanne, CH – Les Docks Nov. 18 – Brussels, BE – AB Nov. 19 – Amsterdam, NL – Paradiso * w/ Wild Nothing
