Beirut dropped a video for "The Rip Tide", the
title track from their 2011 album. The visually captivating clip was directed by Houmam Abdallah. Frontman Zach
Condon shared his thought's on the video below....
"I always felt that "The Rip Tide" wasn't fully
able to project its own ambitions in song form.. no matter how it was performed
or recorded, it felt contained by sound alone... I wanted more, as I often do
with my music, and this is not a bad thing. Growing to accept a song's limits
is part of the process of creating and loving them. Which was why I was so
excited to see what Houmam had dug into when he picked "The Rip Tide"
out of all others for a video. The concept fit, and the product brought the
song somewhere that I had only been able to describe to myself, now available
for others to see and feel it much more as I had in the process of writing it."
