Zach Condon would choose to begin Beirut’s set with a simple Good evening everyone, diving immediately into the set, to the rapturous applause of the hundreds in attendance. Using an impressive variety of instrumentation (stand-up bass, accordion, trumpet, trombone, french horn, euphonium, and Condon’s signature ukulele), the band played a batch of tunes that appropriately ushered the audience to a variety of places around the world. Gulag Orkestar sparked a quick trip to the Balkans. During The Shrew, a song from Beirut’s brand new EP March of the Zapotec, Mexico became the destination of choice. They also dabbled in a track called My Night With a Prostitute from Marseille; this one from Zach Condon’s Realpeoples Holland EP.
They ended the show with a cover of a dancy old Brazilian song, written by Ary Barroso called Aquarela do Brasil (Watercolor of Brazil); a lighthearted way to send the happy crowd off into the cold streets of Brooklyn indeed.
