By the Sea is a band hailing from the Wirral, a peninsula in northwest England. They're known for their dreamy, atmospheric indie pop sound that incorporates elements of shoegaze and psychedelic music [1]. The band members have cited influences ranging from classic bands like The Beach Boys and Townes Van Zandt to more contemporary acts like Super Furry Animals [2].

Formed around 2010, By the Sea quickly gained attention with their debut LP "By the Sea" released in 2011 [3]. Their music often features lush layers of guitars, ethereal vocals, and intricate arrangements that create a sense of depth and space. Over the years, they've released several albums and EPs, earning praise for their evocative songwriting and captivating live performances.[4]
