The Beaches are in a season of change. The Toronto-based band left their major label deal, hired a new team, and started embracing social media to reach new audiences. Now, they have a number one single, a viral hit on TikTok, and a brand new album, Blame My Ex. Jordan and Kylie Miller of The Beaches talk to Tom about how everything had to fall apart for everything to come together.

I am 50, my wife is almost 50 as well... we just discovered The Beaches this year. We have listened to their entire back catalog as well as the new album. I haven't see live music in almost 15 years but we are going to go see them in 2024 in Minnesota!

I'm 55 and just discovered them in time to see them live. You will have a blast! The crowd was all ages and bopping!

@wolandbegemotazazello 10 месяцев назад

@@heathergallant2469 Great band that, like Ghost, is keeping classic rock alive. Pity they don't get the attention bands much less interesting (at least to me) do.

51 here and I just get such Blondie and punk vibes from them - love it!

@damiancentanni2773 8 месяцев назад

Hi 👋. I'm 68 years, and am going to see them THIS Saturday, here in Portland Oregon! 🎵🎸. Cheers

I'm 55 and kids that grew up in the 80's seem young at heart, and I also love their music starting with Blame Brett.

These 4 young Canadians have some serious musical talent. See them live if you can! I have and am seeing them again shortly!

"I'm not ready for therapy, to take accountability" says all the meaning of this song. This is an amazing song and I love it

For people not ready to settle down.

My fave song

@christianswain4884 11 месяцев назад

Blame Brett is a wonderfully well written song that sheds a little new light on the breakup formula, that is so used by so many other songwriters. Not easy to give a new take on a well-worn subject.

@catsfurever3 Год назад

Almost 50 yrs old here and LOVE this whole record! Never heard of them before this but bought in pre-sale n constantly playing the album. Discovered on tiktok and can’t wait for the show in WINNNIPEG 🎉

@davehenderson6896 6 месяцев назад

Yeah blame Brett, I wonder if the mean Brett Hart?

@BillBird2111 7 месяцев назад

I know that Tom and the girls are young. But one of the greatest albums ever written and produced, Rumours by Fleetwood Mac, was powered by the breakups that were taking place within the band in 1976. Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham split, as did John and Christine McVie. Nearly every song at that album was addressed to a member of the band. Stevie wrote about Lindsay. Lindsay wrote about Stevie. Christine did the same with John. That album was raw with hurt. And, if you watch the early 1977 live performances, you can see Stevie looking right in Lindsay's direction as she sings Dreams, with real and raw emotion. Blame Brett has that same, similar emotion.

Canadian music is the best music. Way to go Beaches. May you join the music hall of fame some day. They write and play with your hearts. I hope they never lose that passion.

Kyli called me out for finding them on tiktok and then going all the way through the discography 😅💯

@gogengo1977 Год назад

Same 😂

@johnhoffmann6904 Год назад

I'm in love with Jordan and I've never met her, so you really can't blame the guy who said he loved her after 3 dates. But them listening to the The Cure a lot partly explains my Beaches obsession--I had just seen The Cure (amazing) a few days before I first heard, and was blown away by, The Beaches.

@marygracemcgrath 7 месяцев назад

Found you on my instagram reels lol- the video of you all wearing wigs and singing "Blame Brett" Just like Kylie said, Ive been diving back into the older discography and I'm so into it 💕 I love The Beaches!!!

@lous111 Год назад

Tom, you always have great interviews. Much appreciated. Thanks for interviewing this band.

@DoctorMedical-v8c 3 месяца назад

Wow, you all flow so well! Listening to your music takes me back to my college days; cure, rem, b52, smiths, and Siouxsie and the Banshees. You girls rock!! Keep doing what you love, and stay you (p.s. My kids always sing the chorus to Edge of the Earth, they absolutely love it!). Be easy

@thegoddessKeKe 28 дней назад

The Beaches are my favorite new band. The lyrical content is fantastic and very identifiable for me personally.(Though I am old enough to be these lady's mother). I feel like their music invokes the Go-Go's and Verucas Salt. I'm hoping that they make it to Wisconsin soon to see them play.

The Beaches are opening for Greta at our state fair this year. I had never heard of them, so I took a deep dive and I'm obsessed! Our entire family adores them now. We're in our 50's, kiddos are in their 20's. I can't wait to see them live.

Have you all really been just leading this guy along for 10 years and you’ve hidden all this and you haven’t told him anything? Seem like the kind of girls that tell guy they love them and only weeks later. Be packing your bags to move away.
