Beirut is the band of 22-year-old Santa Fe native Zach Condon. The band's first official release was assisted by Jeremy Barnes (Neutral Milk Hotel, A Hawk and a Hacksaw) and Heather Trost (A Hawk and a Hacksaw); it combines elements of Eastern European and folk sounds. Condon plays the trumpet and the ukulele as his main instruments, having been unable to play guitar because of a wrist injury that prevented his hand from reaching fully around the neck of a guitar.

Beirut - In the Mausoleum
Click to view
Time travels to learn your secret life in your mausoleum
And Berlin is so ugly in the morning light but with them I could never feel so right
it's almost like your in a dream... they're amazing
i want to marry him so he can sing to me all the time... that would be the perfect dream.
He is Great. So young and so innovative!
One of the most unique projects i've listenned recently!
