"In a market saturated with indie rock bands who all try to sound so different that they end up sounding the same, Beta Lion actually do sound different enough to make them stand out from the crowd. 4/5 Stars."

"this quartet always gets to a soaring, arena-ready chorus that often sounds like Phoenix’s popsavant brain tugging on Death Cab for Cutie’s heartstrings."
-SD Citybeat - SD CityBeat
"Beta Lion’s Written In Sand invites the listener to be a part of an audience... From the very beginning Written In Sand feels like a larger effort than it’s five tracks would seem to imply. Beta Lion are creating an experience that feels like a mini concept album."

"if you like to sing "oooohs" and "ahhhs" along with a sweet band, Beta Lion are definitely worth checking out...As I mentioned to the band, if music doesn't work out with Op, he really should get into stand up comedy. The kid had great stage banter and after was cracking everyone up." - SD Dialed In.
“'Love Aside' is that perfect blend of pop, dance and alternative that makes the pretty girls swoon and gives everyone a good excuse to hit the dance floor." - SD City Beat

Bio
Beta Lion is a band of brothers, cousins, and best friends. They are a four-piece indie rock band whose high-concept lyrics are cleverly, neatly, and artfully packaged into catchy pop rock songs. Coming from an area in San Diego that historically produces more gangs than bands, Beta Lion is like a rare urban mythological creature.
Beta Lion's 2014 release "Written In Sand" (available on iTunes http://smarturl.it/writteninsand); was well reviewed by critics (See press section), and has received airplay in both the U.S. and in the U.K.
Beta lion
is currently in the studio, working on their first full-length album
"Urban Mythological," to be released in the spring of 2016 by Villains
Records. The first single off of the upcoming album, "Dynasty" is set
to release in early December 2015.
