Beirut on Letterman – A Sunday Smile (vid)

February 9th, 2009 . by Jilly

Beirut performed last Friday on David Letterman. For their network television debut they played ‘A Secret Smile’ off of their new double EP. This was a real treat.

The new EP is entitled “March of the Zapotec/Holland.” It’s set be released next Tuesday. March of the Zapotec was influenced by Condon’s recent trip to Oaxaca, Mexico. Condon is backed by a 19-piece funeral band from Teotitlán del Valle. The other EP, Holland, produced under the moniker realpeople is more synth-pop, which is the kind of music Condon made pre-Beirut.
