Catch the 10 Lebanon-based artists performing live on stage for the 10th anniversary of Beirut and Beyond !
On April 28th, 2024, at KED in Karantina, Beirut, catch the 10 acts featured in The 10 Years Compilation album released at the end of March, 2024.
Each act is scheduled to perform their featured song from the compilation, as well as their original tracks and collaborative works with other artists. Additionally, the vinyl compilation album, featuring all the acts, will be on sale at the event.
The compilation, produced in partnership with Bachar Mar-Khalifé’s label balcoon, was released as vinyl and on all digital platforms on March 29th, 2024. It features a selection of 10 original tracks from 10 artists/groups based in Lebanon. It also includes a 12-page booklet with the lyrics of each song.
This album, recorded in July 2023, was the result of the Musicians Support Program 2, which aimed to support Lebanon-based musicians amidst the economic crisis by commissioning them to create original tracks. The selection of artists and groups was overseen by a committee comprising Bachar Mar-Khalifé, Anthony Semaan, and Yara Mrad. The recording took place over 10 days at Tunefork Studios in Beirut, with each participant allocated a full day to work on their track alongside Bachar Mar-khalifé and sound engineer François Baurin.
Showcasing a diversity in musical genres and artistic potential: from hip hop to dreamy folk to electronic music and melodic pop the compilation and its release concert aim to contribute to breaking down barriers and bringing together a community of artists passionate about their art.
