William Beckett, "Just Like A Dream"

What the hell..

Its been three years since we 've heard a peep from The Academy Is…, then this ditty arrives.

A solo performance by front man William Beckett, singing The Cures "Just Like Heaven".  Lets talk.

First,  Beckett looks great! Older yeah a bit less swagger but it is a webcam performance.  Keep In mind I drove 9 damn hours to see this kids band, long story short he looks a bit tired.

But what a great rendition of this great song.  I consider myself a strong Cure fan, so I'm not too keen on slacker reproduction.  This is far from slack. We announced earlier that the band is now a trio and working on their next full length LP.  I suppose Beckett thought it wise to show his face again so we wouldn't forget him.

Not too shabby
