Beirut is the perfect band for those craving something completely different. Fusing elements of Balkan folk, French chanson, and American indie, principle songwriter and singer Zach Condon fills out classically structured pop songs with charming ukulele, flugelhorn, and accordion. Condon's exotic takes on music are strongly influenced by the beauty and sounds of places he's traveled to, evoking memories, warmth, longing, and inevitably, joy. His first album 'Gulag Orkestar' was made single-handedly and to critical acclaim, followed by the massively successful Flying Club Cup, and most recently the double EP 'March of the Zapotec/Holland'. The band's live sets are equally as breathtaking to watch as they are to listen to, and it's the Fusion stage that has the pleasure of hosting them.

Lyrics:
If I was young, I'd flee this town
I'd bury my dreams underground
As did I, we drink to die, we drink tonight

Far from home, elephant gun
Let's take them down one by one
We'll lay it down, it's not been found, it's not around

Let the seasons begin - it rolls right on
Let the seasons begin - take the big king down

Let the seasons begin - it rolls right on
Let the seasons begin - take the big king down

And it rips through the silence of our camp at night
And it rips through the night

And it rips through the silence of our camp at night
And it rips through the silence, all that is left is all that i hide

Thiago Gandra,natural de Minas Gerais, é o idealizador e o nome por trás do projeto Muiraquitã ,buscando  sempre tocar o lado  oculto da mente humana através de suas apresentações , deu início em sua jornada sonora  no  ano de 2017 onde se apaixonou  pelas melodias do dark/forest. Iniciou seu projeto voltado para as madrugadas psicodélicas, seus sets podem variar de 150bpm até  160bpm procurando sempre manter a harmonização do som e uma mixagem limpa, para assim,transmitir os segredos  de uma mente em caos e destruir estereótipos.

Kahkahalarımız sonlanmadan hüznümüz başlardı gözlerimizde.
