What Happened To The Beach (CD)
Declan McKenna
Amoeba Review
Declan McKenna sounds poised for stardom on What Happened to the Beach. The English singer-songwriter creates ultra catchy, quirky indie numbers that somehow manage to combine both jangle pop weirdness with Brit-pop stadium rock grandiosity. McKenna has nodded to Unknown Mortal Orchestra and St. Vincent as inspirations for the Beach recording sessions, which makes sense once you hear these instantly likeable tracks, although McKenna's distinct, gifted artistic voice is all his own. Enter the sunshine-y, left-of-center world of What Happened to the Beach — you'll be glad you did.
