Station Beirut

While you mark your calendars for Beirut & Beyond International Music Festival 2016, they’ll be offering you, every couple of months, an early tasting of what to expect.

Maurice Louca’s sound is one that folds influences, complexity, openness and fluidity.
After performing in the first edition of Beirut & Beyond 2013, and taking part in the 2013 and 2014 Beirut & Beyond tours in partnership with Oslo World Music Festival, Maurice released his second album, Benhayyi Al Baghbaghan (Salute The Parrot) a recording that shattered the confines of musical and cultural labelling and was dubbed by many as a game-changer for the region’s bustling independent music scene.

Hard-hitting live renderings of this album will be performed by Louca on live keys and electronics, along with Bashar Farran on bass and Tommaso Cappellato on drums.
