The San Francisco indie outfit were in London for a headline show at the Dome and Sara Amroussi-Gilissen went behind the scenes for a pictorial piece, featuring everything from height comparisons to trouser displays and carrot consumption. La Isla Bonita is out now on Polyvinyl Records, including the single ‘Exit Only’.
