Lost Behind The Clouds

This week, Austin pysch-pop rockers Bali Yaaah debut their first full-length release, Lost Behind The Clouds. Though this time, those swirling cosmic Brit-psych and post-punk vibes hit close to home amidst dreams of…breaking out of lockdown and maybe flying off to the beach? Hell yes.

At the time of production, the notion of lockdown was inconceivable. The band began working on the LP at The Bubble at the start of the pandemic in 2020. As they began to process life changing around them, collectively and individually, so too did the music’s direction change, emerging from a strange existence and pining for a hopeful resolution.

Bali Yaaah celebrates the release of Lost Behind The Clouds with a big show tomorrow night, Thursday Dec. 8, at The 13th Floor on Red River. Joining them on the bill are The Coffin Fits, Fogwood, and Kenton McKay and The Sensors. Doors at 7 p.m.
