2009 two vinyl LP set from Zach Condon AKA Beirut. For the past year, Beirut has alternated between touring in support of 2007's much-lauded The Flying Club Cup and writing a wealth of new material. With no sense of a release in mind, Condon recorded in any style that struck his fancy. Some early discussions about recording material for a film being shot in Mexico morphed into a new idea: What about finding a local band in a small city in Mexico, hiring them to play some new material, and recording the result? Disc One is the result of those sessions (six tracks) while Disc Two features five solo recordings from his home studio. Pomper Records.
