Beths
Jump Rope Gazers
Everything changed for The Beths with their 2018 debut 'Future Me Hates Me,' a hook-filled indie rock album that earned critical acclaim and launched them onto international stages. Quitting their day jobs, the Auckland-based band toured extensively, opening for acts like Pixies and Death Cab for Cutie, and turning their passion project into a full-time career. Written between tours, their second album 'Jump Rope Gazers' explores themes of distance, anxiety, and the emotional toll of chasing dreams far from home. Lead singer Elizabeth Stokes reflects on the loneliness of constant travel and the longing for connection with lyrics full of vulnerability and warmth. Limited repress on 'beam of light' vinyl.
