Beirut is an American band which was originally the solo musical project of Santa Fe, New Mexico native Zachary Francis Condon, and later expanded into a band. Their first performances were in New York in May 2006, to support the release of their debut album, Gulag Orkestar.[1][2] The music combines elements of Eastern European and Balkan folk with Westernpop music, fusing the American mainstream and indie-rock culture and the World Music market.
