    The Beaches

    An Odyssey Sound Session with The Beaches.
    The Beaches are currently one of the best bands out there. After more than a decade together as a band, sisters Jordan Miller (lead vocals, bass) and Kylie Miller (guitar), alongside Leandra Earl (guitar and keys) and Eliza Enman-McDaniel (drums), have entered a new chapter with their album Blame My Ex. The lead single from the album ‘Blame Brett’ is an unapologetic, rebellious anthem that has amassed millions of streams and led to a sold out world tour.
