You might think I’m being smarmy with that title up there. I’m not. Beirut is incredible, and Zach Condon is basically the whole band, but he seems to be writing and recording under his given name now. The horns of Beirut remain, but not the drums, and he’s thrown in a few ambient keyboards and echoey electronic sounds. Give it a listen.
