The group currently includes Dustin Payseur, Tommy Gardner, Jack Doyle Smith and Tommy Davidson. They are known for their lo-fi, atmospheric sound and Payseur's vocal style.
Formed in 2009, the act was originally a means to expand the solo project of Dustin Payseur. That same year bassist John Peña and guitarist Christopher Burke were recruited as the lineup for their initial tour. Their debut single, Daydream / Desert Sand was released in February 2010 on Captured Tracks. In May 2010, their debut album Beach Fossilswas released and met with favorable reviews.
The following years saw a number of changes to their lineup, including when John Peña left the band in 2011 to form Heavenly Beat, and guitarist Cole Smith, who left for his solo project, DIIV. In 2012, Tommy Gardner stepped in as the drummer to form their current lineup.
Clash the Truth was released in early 2013, peaking at number 40 on the Independent Albums chart. Paysuer described it as being an album about what happens after you've solved the immediate problems that come with moving away from home - "something that just doesn't feel like it makes sense yet".
In 2017, after a long break, the third album Somersault was released

Beach Fossils Lyrics
Daydream I'm not upset when you're around I think I lose myself…
Golden Age And I'm not trying To lose my mind But I couldn't say That…
Lazy Day I felt the grass on my chest in the open…
Sometimes Well I can understand But I really don't care to know And…
The Horse I couldn't talk to you But I'd love to walk with…
Twelve Roses What have I been doing here? And what's the biggest chase? H…
Vacation I'm getting on that bus Got to get out of town It's…
Wide Awake So wide, awake Within your whole wide world I'll risk all ou…
Window View I never wanted this to happen On the day Wanted to stay…
Youth It's not so worth getting all bent out of shape…
