Beirut (no, not the war torn city)…
by Farnsy on Feb.20, 2007, under Culcha, London
I’ve been listening to a bit of Beirut lately. They’re an american band that we were lucky enough to see as a support act last year when we went to see Calexico at The Roundhouse in Chalk Farm. They play quite a different kind of music – very full of sound and interesting to listen to. One of the things that amazed me when we saw them live was the number and range of instruments they had on stage at any one time. I think there were 7 of them on stage playing at one time or another the following instruments:
- Eukelele x 3
- Mandolin
- fiddle x 2
- Guitar
- baritone sax
- tuba x 2
- trumpet x 3
- Clarinet
- Xylophone
- Drums
- tambourine x 2
- Cello
- Keyboard
- vocals x 2
While the lead singer wasn’t a terribly big bloke, he had a spectacular voice – very deep and strong.
I’d recommend checking them out if you get the chance – especially live.
