The name Beneath the Boardwalk originated when the first batch of demos were sent around on the Internet. The first sender, wanting to classify the demos, named them after the club where he received them, the Boardwalk in Sheffield — a since defunct venue where the Arctic Monkeys used to play gigs and Alex Turner used to work.
By 2012, Arctic Monkeys were based in Los Angeles, with Turner and Helders sharing a house. [109] Arctic Monkeys toured the US as the support act for the Black Keys in early 2012.
