In 1844, Hans Christian Andersen imagined the story of an evil troll who wanted to drive the goodness out of the hearts of humans. To achieve this, he hangs a huge magic mirror in front of the moon. When it breaks, the people touched by its shards become insensitive to human kindness and see the worst in people.

A joyous return to the stage for Zach Condon and his European folk-focussed indie project Beirut. This is music as imagined landscape, a romantic sweep of Europe's past through the eyes of an American troubadour. From his Balkan-tinged debut in 2006, through a bohemian France dreamed up on 2007's The Flying Cup Club and on towards the Dutch and Mexican influences of his later material, Beirut is clearly the work of a singular vision while remaining hauntingly familiar, a half-remembered dream of a past life. Latest album Hadsel was inspired by a short time spent exiled in northern Norway, an emotional return to form released in 2023.

After some time in the wilderness, Zach Condon leads his romantic indie-folk project to a triumphant return to the stage.
