The Beths Are Back With Jangle Rock Magic — and a North American Headlining Tour

The Beths, led by singer Elizabeth Stokes, returned with "Metal," a jangle-pop track featuring Pearce’s 12-string guitar and Stokes’ evocative lyrics about life and health struggles. The song is accompanied by Stokes’ admission that it reflects her body as a complex machine while acknowledging its flaws, referencing her own health journey. The band will embark on their North American headlining tour this fall, starting in Asheville, NC, with stops across the U.S., including Los Angeles, Chicago, and Brooklyn, supported by artists like Courtney Barnett and Bret McKenzie. Tickets go on sale on May 2.
