Beirut
Zach Condon's project, setting a mournful croon against Balkan brass, ukulele and accordion. Old-world folk forms filtered through a bedroom-recording sensibility.

About Beirut
Beirut began in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where Zach Condon recorded most of the 2006 debut Gulag Orkestar largely by himself after time spent travelling in Europe. Later records turned to other traditions: The Flying Club Cup drew on French chanson, and the March of the Zapotec EP was made with a brass band in Oaxaca, Mexico.
The Rip Tide and No No No pared the songs back toward shorter, tighter pop structures, with trumpet and flugelhorn still carrying the melodies. On stage Beirut works as a full band with a horn section. Hadsel, from 2023, takes its name from the Norwegian island where Condon wrote it, and builds much of its sound around a church organ.
