Best Coast Share New Track “For the First Time,” Announce 2020 Album and Tour

Los Angeles based rock duo Bethany Cosentino and Bobb Bruno of Best Coast have made their long-awaited return with their new track, “For the First Time.”

The track is laced with their signature surf rock sound combined with an added feeling of 80s nostalgia. Check out the official music video below.

Although they debuted a children’s album titled Best Kids in 2018, this is the first taste of new Best Coast fans are receiving since their 2015 record, California Nights.

While they are still “completing work” on the new album, Always Tomorrow is slated to release sometime in 2020. If you’re eager to catch the new sounds live, check out official dates for their upcoming tour with fellow Ernie Ballers Mannequin Pussy below.
