Los Angeles Genre-defying Punks Beach Bums (a.k.a. BEACHxBUMS) recently released their brand new album Overcast, out now via Lolipop Records, alongside the record’s focus track, “Overcast.” The band has been blowing up on streaming with their catchy, raucous sound! The band has teamed up with Ghost Cult for their new music video “Overcast!” Watch it now
Said Jawn Tang (vocals, guitar) of their newest music video:
“The ‘Overcast’ music video was simple…moshing, crowd surfing, and capturing the! Overcast ‘look’ in black and white. We wanted to capture a glimpse of what it’s like watching the band at a real show. We had posted an instagram story inviting fans from around LA to come rage and they did exactly that. Although the song covers deeper topics, the video shows another side to the song… the raw, chaotic energy of both the band and its fans going crazy.”
Of their new record and its title track, he continued:
“Overcast, the album, focuses on the different writing styles that Beach Bums can tackle. To put it simply, this album is the most updated version of the MYCORE concept and sound.
‘Overcast,’ the song, was the first song we wrote as the new 5 piece lineup. The song speaks on conflict in a relationship. This can be left to interpretation, meaning you can relate it to friends, family, lovers, enemies, and everything in between.”
Beach Bums is in the midst of a series of West Coast tour dates, monikered the all4u tour. Tickets and more information can be found here.

Beach Bums Bio:
From one of Southern California’s most exciting bands… Beach Bums (aka BEACHxBUMS!) are a young genre defying band that plays with everything from 808s, auto tune, real and programmed drums, metal and indie guitar, and so much more. The result is a group you just can’t pin down. Their style is self described as “MYCORE.”
BEACHxBUMS! has created a huge catalog of crossover music that their following keeps coming back for. Fans of all genres travel from everywhere to experience the insanity of their live shows. Imagine fans stage diving off roofs… a person blowing fire out of their mouth on stage… hundreds of people moshing in unison…. these are only a few phrases to describe a Beach Bums experience.
The group has set out to expand their idea of what “MYCORE” can be in 2022. Members Jawntang, Elijah, & Joe ditched being a 3 piece unit and added friends to broaden their sound. Their newest record includes Loverboyrando and Paul, making them a 5 piece for this upcoming chapter of Beach Bums.
