new Beirut at last...tomorrow on saturday morning

yes, you read correctly, there is, at long last, a new release from one of my favs, Beirut. It's called March of the Zapotec/Realpeople-Holland. it's actually a double ep featuring music from an earlier carnation of a Zach Condon band (Realpeople) and music written, if not recorded, before Beirut. Tune in to check it out with me. Of course, I have a load of new music from all corners of the interweb.

Tomorrow at 8a. Oh, and here's a link to listen on line. Hope you can join us.
