The band's first two drummers were Jennifer Clavin (of Mika Miko and Cold Cave) and then Adam Garcia. Ali Koehler had performed as the band's live drummer, before she officially joined in July 2010 after leaving the Vivian Girls. The band released several 7" singles and EPs, including Make You Mine and Black Iris, and they released a music video for their single "When I'm With You." Best Coast's single "Boyfriend" was named by Pitchfork Media as a "best new track." Their first full-length album, Crazy for You, was released in July 2010 on the Mexican Summer record label. The album entered the Top 40 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and peaked at Number 36. As of August 8, 2010, Best Coast's debut Crazy For You has sold over 10,000 units.
