{"product_id":"beach-bunny-the-early-days-animalism-pool-party-crybaby-2lp-poseidon-vinyl","title":"Beach Bunny - The Early Days: Animalism, Pool Party, Crybaby (Poseidon Colour Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeach Bunny – The Early Days: Animalism, Pool Party, Crybaby\u003c\/strong\u003e collects the formative recordings that introduced Lili Trifilio’s sharply observed songwriting and helped turn a Chicago solo project into one of modern indie rock’s most recognisable names. Presented here on a two-LP Poseidon coloured vinyl edition, the collection gathers thirteen songs from the Animalism, Pool Party and Crybaby era, making it an ideal starting point for newer listeners and a substantial physical edition for established fans.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese early tracks already contain the qualities that would become central to Beach Bunny: bright guitar hooks, compact arrangements and lyrics that capture romantic uncertainty without losing their humour or immediacy. “6 Weeks”, “Greetings from California”, “July”, “Shoegazer” and “Boys” move between breezy indie pop, alternative rock and emotionally direct bedroom songwriting. Heard together, the songs show Trifilio refining a voice that feels conversational and personal while still inviting a room full of people to sing along.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeach Bunny’s audience grew through persistent touring, major festival appearances and a genuine sense of community around the band. Appearances at Coachella and Lollapalooza, their hometown Pool Party festivals, and later collaborations with artists including Tegan and Sara and Marina all widened that community. Viral favourites such as the Platinum-certified “Prom Queen” and “Cloud 9”, alongside the Gold-certified “Sports”, eventually brought the group to a vast international audience, but the foundations are audible throughout this early material.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe full-band identity now associated with Beach Bunny includes Trifilio alongside Anthony Vaccaro and Jon Alvarado, yet these recordings retain the intimate energy of the project’s beginnings. Their directness is exactly the appeal: concise songs, memorable melodies and small emotional details that land with unusual force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePressed on eye-catching Poseidon coloured vinyl across two records, The Early Days is a strong addition to any indie, alternative or guitar-pop collection. It documents the moment Beach Bunny’s sound was taking shape and places three key early releases together in one convenient vinyl package. This is a pre-order for release on 28 August 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Many Hats","offers":[{"title":"Poseidon Colour Vinyl","offer_id":58322970083702,"sku":"BUNNY4LP","price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/6450\/6005\/files\/beachbunny_a3811427-d091-43c2-afb3-263540ac52b5.webp?v=1784799616","url":"https:\/\/www.stickyblacktarmac.com\/products\/beach-bunny-the-early-days-animalism-pool-party-crybaby-2lp-poseidon-vinyl","provider":"Sticky Black Tarmac","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
