Beirut: The Rip Tide

Lighting Design and Visual Concept by Ben Stanton
Touring LD: Matt “Wookie” Wukman

 

“ Last evening’s Beirut show was really enjoyable on so many levels. Perhaps it was that I’m a huge sucker for a horns section, or perhaps it was the great lighting that went perfectly with the tunes, or perhaps it was just that I’d only seen Beirut from afar at the 2009 Pitchfork Festival and it’s a completely different experience within the confines of a theater. But whatever it was, I never wanted it to end.”       Excerpt & photos from the website DailyBeatz 10/12/2011
