Santa Fe
I’d never quite got the Beirut thing until I heard their new album, The Rip Tide, but I’m now officially converted. Of the many lovely tracks on the album ‘Santa Fe’ is one of the best, but it also boasts the fantastic video below, which is both very funny and a very clever exercise in storytelling. The payoff comes late, but I promise it’s worth it …
One of the easiest to listen to off the album, for sure. If you’ve never heard The Flying Cub Club, his previous release- make sure you check it out too. It’s at least as good.
YAY! I love Beirut. At last we have a musical taste in common, James.
