I feel really comfortable playing to people who've never heard Beach House before. We've always had fun opening because you get to try to impress people.

Sometimes, for bands, everything just happens too fast.

We almost don't want to play bigger shows than where we are now. It's kind of perfect.

It's great when a huge amount of money goes from a dumb corporation into the hands of an awesome band with brilliant ideas who can use it to keep being a band for a year, as opposed to a band that's already huge taking one of those things - that's more pathetic.

All bands are in danger of losing their identity. Constantly.

It's really boring to talk about what you ate and have 48,000 fans listen to you. It's awful.

It's the most dangerous world for bands nowadays because everybody's branding and trying to steal your vibe as soon as you do anything that anyone cares about. It's very weird.
