Beach Bunny floated on cottony clouds for their performance of “Cloud 9” on Fallon on Friday night. The Tonight Show appearance was the first step of a Beach Bunny victory lap, as the journey that began with the 2020 album Honeymoon culminates in a gigantic North American tour which the Chicago outfit announced earlier this week.
The band gave prospective ticket holders plenty of cause to reach for their wallets. Visually, the set was stunning, with blue and violet backdrops adding warmth to the suspended clouds. Even as the melody bounced up and down, singer Lili Trifilio injected a playful emotionality into the lyrics, glancing skywards for, “But when he loves me I feel like I’m floating,” adding extra snap to, “Tired of tripping on my shoes,” and putting a whoop in the “nothing,” for, “Even when we fade eventually to nothing.” Check out “Cloud 9” below.
In November, Beach Bunny will embark on 31-date North American tour, with stops in Canada, the American midwest, and cities big and small along the eastern and western coasts. Check out the full itinerary below and get your tickets here. Last month, the band spoke to Consequence about the Origins of a new version of “Cloud 9” featuring Tegan and Sara.
