Mesmerising and genre-defiant band Beirut release a new album entitled ‘The Rip Tide’ through their own label, Pompeii, on August 29th.
Ahead of the new release, the band have released free download ‘East Harlem’, and because we’re lovely, we thought we’d share it with you.
The orchestral world-folk-pop group have gained a lot of ground internationally, travelling much of the world to play shows since the band’s beginnings back in 2006. It’s exciting to see a band who could seemingly easily attract the attention of major record labels deciding to stay independent instead – it seems to be a growing trend in today’s music industry.
Catch Beirut all over the world doing shows and festivals this summer. All dates are listed on the band’s Facebook page.
