Beach Bunny is an American rock band formed in 2015 in Chicago, Illinois. The group released its debut studio album, Honeymoon, in February 2020 on Mom + Pop Music.

History[]

Beach Bunny began as a bedroom-based solo project in 2015 when Lili Trifilio recorded a song titled "6 Weeks". The same year, Trifilio released her first EP, titled Animalism.[4][5] She released her second EP titled Pool Party in 2016.[6] In 2017, she released her third EP titled Crybaby, and Beach Bunny expanded to a full four-piece lineup shortly after.[7] In 2018, Beach Bunny released their fourth EP, titled Prom Queen.[7][8][9][10]

On October 31, 2019, the band announced that they had signed to Mom + Pop Music and released their first full-length album, Honeymoon, on February 14, 2020.[11][12] The album was produced by Joe Reinhart at Electrical Audio; the Chicago studio owned by Steve Albini, and subsequently mixed at Reinhart's Headroom Studios. Honeymoon was met with widespread critical acclaim, appearing on the Best Albums of 2020 lists in both The New York Times, and Rolling Stone.[13] In November 2020, the band released a new single titled "Good Girls (Don't Get Used)". Their fifth EP, Blame Game, was released in 2021.[14]
