Hire: Beirut
Beirut is an American band that was originally the solo musical project of Zach Condon.
Beirut‘s music combines elements of indie rock and world music. The band’s first performance with the full brass section was in New York, in May 2006, in support of their debut album Gulag Orkestar, but performed their first show with Condon, Petree, and Collins at the College of Santa Fe earlier that year.
Beirut’s second album, The Flying Club Cup, was recorded largely at a makeshift studio in Albuquerque and completed at Arcade Fire‘s studio in Quebec.

Zach Condon named the band after Lebanon’s capital, because of the city’s history of conflict and as a place where cultures collide. Beirut performed in Lebanon for the first time in 2014, at the Byblos International Festival.
On October 22, 2018, Condon announced Beirut‘s next album, Gallipoli, released on February 1, 2019. The album is named after the Italian town where Condon wrote the title track. On January 10, 2019, the music video for Beirut‘s new song “Landslide” was released. On February 9, 2019, Beirut appeared on the “Saturday Sessions” segment of CBS This Morning’s Saturday program, playing selections from “Gallipoli.”

Condon plays a rotary-valve trumpet and the ukulele as his main instruments. He bought the ukulele as a joke stage prop, but found he liked the sound and was able to play it despite a wrist injury that inhibited him from playing guitar. Condon also plays the piston trumpet, euphonium, mandolin, accordion, various keyboard instruments, and a modified conch shell that appears on The Flying Club Cup.
