i love how the top comments are 4 years old., when u didnt have to come up with something irrelevant about your life to make it to the top comments. only if people would be like this today
The lead singer of Beirut, Zach Condon, is from Santa Fe. However, I believe that the band originated in Brooklyn (if not, they do, as of now, reside in Brooklyn). :)
Beirut played at the Sounds Like Brooklyn series of concerts that showcased bands from Brooklyn- so yeah, I'm pretty sure of that :)
they did a cool thing in one video where the intro was only violin. that was cool. i like the little pixy sounds as the beginning to though. beirut is truely amazing. truely.

No I don't think so. The show Beirut did was at Brooklyn Academy of Music.

Somebody in the crowd has a terrible voice, but oh well, that's probably what I sound like as well.
This is one of my favorite Beirut songs, it's so amazing both on the original recording and live :)

I hope someday to be able to recieve some sort of enthuse or musically inclined, "Bravo, Faithie!" Wouldn't that be jfdajfd;lkaj yeah.
From any of the members of Beirut.
