Meet Theremin Beach, the UK singer, songwriter, and producer redefining the boundaries of modern music. With a knack for storytelling, Chris Struthers—known by his artist name Theremin Beach—fuses introspective lyricism with evocative, cinematic soundscapes. His music bridges eras and genres, creating a space where nostalgia meets the pulse of today.
Drawing from a rich tapestry of influences, Theremin Beach’s sound carries the raw edge of Radiohead, the poetic urgency of Manic Street Preachers, the Britpop swagger of Blur, and the atmospheric allure of Lana Del Rey. Add a touch of Smashing Pumpkins’ introspective angst, and you get tracks that balance lush melodies and intricate instrumentation, inviting listeners into a deeply personal yet universally resonant world.
At its heart, his music is rooted in themes of love, identity, and the disillusionment of modern life. It’s a journey that blends vintage vibes with contemporary production, captivating audiences across generations.
Theremin Beach’s story began humbly, experimenting with his dad’s four-track recorder. From the start, Chris was more interested in crafting something original than recreating existing sounds. By age 14, he discovered step recording on the Sony PlayStation, igniting a love for innovation and an enduring appreciation for 90s dance music.
His influences span a diverse spectrum, from legends like Lou Reed, David Bowie, and Nick Cave to the raw energy of The Sex Pistols, the haunting atmospherics of The Cure, and the moody brilliance of Echo & the Bunnymen.
Theremin Beach has performed extensively across the UK, leaving his mark on iconic venues and festivals. Highlights include performances at Leeds University (featured on Channel 4), Manchester Academy 3, and headlining legendary Camden venues like The Hope and Anchor, Dublin Castle, and 12 Bar Club.
His talent hasn’t gone unnoticed, with spins on BBC Introducing in the North West and glowing reviews from media outlets:
The Ark Preston: “Fans of Editors and/or Interpol should take a keen interest... Chris Struthers’ talent for words and melody and his eerie expression of his words through a deep affect-driven vocal.”
Liverpool Echo: “Good, solid, intelligent, and hugely entertaining rock – something I will remember for a long time to come.”
Norman Records: “Spidery, twangy guitars weave out sweet slices of slightly baroque indie pop... blending many disparate periods of post-punk and anthemic indie pop into something more than worthwhile.”
Tasty: “This is a weirdy little thing, and all the better for it... intriguing stuff framed by the gothic crooning vocals of Chris Struthers.”
Theremin Beach’s ever-evolving soundscape continues to push boundaries while staying grounded in timeless influences. With a growing fan base and a reputation for blending vintage allure with modern sonic textures, he invites listeners into his world—a deeply atmospheric and emotional experience.
Stay tuned as Theremin Beach continues to create music that resonates deeply with the hearts and minds of his audience.
