BEIRUT

Beirut é a orquestra de Zach Condon, nascido em Santa Fé (Novo México),[1], em 13 de fevereiro de 1986. O primeiro lançamento oficial com o nome de Beirut contou com a colaboração de Jeremy Barnes (Neutral Milk Hotel, A Hawk and a Hacksaw) e Heather Trost (ex integrante da banda A Hawk and a Hacksaw).
A música do Beirut combina elementos folk do Leste Europeu, onde Zach passou uma temporada, pesquisando as sonoridades que caracterizam a banda. Instrumentos de sopro como a tuba, o bombardino e o acordeão compõem parte da orquestra regida por Condon,[2] que tem o flugelhorn e o ukulele como seus principais instrumentos,[3] O ukulele foi uma alternativa que surgiu numa época em que estava impedido de tocar guitarra por ter machucado o pulso.
