The fourth annual edition of the Orange County music festival Beach Goth is going down in Santa Ana this weekend, presented and headlined by local heroes The Growlers. Despite the moniker, Beach Goth features more than the implied blend of garage-surf versus gloom and doom.The performers from day one’s all-over-the-musical-map lineup included No Parents (dressed as Slipknot), RiFF RAFF, The Aquabats, Warpaint, The Drums, Ghost, Mac DeMarco, Grimes and Sir Mix-a-Lot. Walk through the costumed wonder of Beach Goth at Santa Ana’s Observatory below (some pics NSFW).
