The Thrills turn “Big Sur” into the kind of sleeper hit that feels like a lucky find at the front of the rack. Sunburned harmonies and a camera-ready hook make it sound like the smartest thing on the radio right now.
Jangly guitars snap against a clean drum thump, while the chorus opens up with bright, salty shimmer. The production keeps the edges tidy, so every vocal layer and handclap lands with a little more lift.
On a gray afternoon, the song cuts through like a window cracked open on a west-facing drive. Perfect for a coffee run, a freeway merge, or pretending the coast is closer than it is.
