Warning: Do not read any further unless you are into lo-fi world folk with a heavy reliance on the ukelele!

Surprised these guys haven't had more of a mention on the forum.

Two good albums so far and their new one "The Rip Tide" is out on Monday.

It's being streamed on the following website

I love Postcards From Italy which Guy's played on Finest Hour a few times, keep meaning to check them out. Smile Will have a listen to the new one, thanks sparky!

Why in the world has there not been a Beirut thread until now!?

No, but seriously. Zach Condon is a genius. I haven't really listened to the new album yet (physical release today! Very Happy), but if it sounds anything like "Goshen," I'll be a very happy camper.
