Benee had a big 2020 with her album Hey U X, and now she’s gearing up to drop more new music. This time, it’s an EP called Lychee that’s set to drop on March 4. She previewed the effort today with “Beach Boy,” a breezy indie-pop tune that builds nicely on Hey U X.
Benee says of the song, “‘Beach Boy’ is pure fantasy, set in LA. It’s about being happy alone, but still wanting some love; wanting the thrill without the pain. It was the first time I’d worked with Greg Kurstin, and it was so sick…we got on super well, and I love this track…I think it is perfect for cruising down the freeway with the top down :).”
