Best Coast's third album, California Nights, landed on Harvest in May 2015, and "In My Eyes" is one of Bethany Cosentino's songs from it that got a second wind the following February, when it went out to American alternative radio as the record's fourth single.
Wally Gagel, who had already steered the duo's 2013 EP Fade Away, produced, recorded and mixed it, with Seth Olansky and Vincent Silva assisting at every stage. Cosentino has said the whole album set out to dig into the darkness Los Angeles keeps out of sight, the notion that something can sound sunny and fun without feeling that way at all. That split between shiny surface and what lurks underneath is the album's whole premise, and it's the frame to hear this one in.
