BESTiE

"BAE"

BY Gregory AdamsPublished Apr 1, 2016

Vancouver's BESTiE have yet to announce a formal follow-up to their No Bad Days LP, but the band have offered up another sun-smacked single. Streaming now is a doe-eyed dance tune titled "BAE."

The song starts up with a swell of vibrant, nearly gospel-sounding organs, but the band quickly plunk into their tropi-pop sound. A wrinkled-pleat bass rhythm slides up to a slow and steady backbeat, while ice cube-cracking guitars are also in the mix.

Lead singer Tristan Orchard makes allusions to his bae, half-remembered lyrics to radio songs, a raised pitchfork scenario, the arrival of spring and more.

You'll find the track below, while it's currently up for sale as a digital download via Business Class Records.
