It’s been four long years since we last got a full studio album from Beirut (2007′s The Flying Cup Club). The wait is now over, on the back of Beirut’s new single announcement a few days ago ( featuring tracks East Harlem and Goshen) – it was announced today that there will be a new album.
The Rip Tide will be released on 29th August (UK) and 30th August (US).
Track listing is as follows:
1. A Candle’s Fire
2. Santa Fe
3. East Harlem
4. Goshen
5. Payne’s Bay
6. The Rip Tide
7. Vagabond
8. The Peacock
9. Port of Call
For everyone in Ireland, Beirut are scheduled to play Electric Picnic on Sept 4th. While those in Toronto can look forward to two upcoming shows in The Phoenix on 2nd & 4th August.
The track East Harlem may sound familiar to some, as it’s on Beirut’s Live At The Music Hall Of Williamsburg album. Still it’s great to hear the studio version, and I’m damm excited for the album.
