About Postcards
Postcards is a dream pop trio formed in 2012 in Beirut, Lebanon. Their music is defined by hushed vocals floating over expansive sonic spaces that shift between harsh noise and ambient soundscapes
I’ll Be Here In The Morning (Ruptured/T3 Records/Cargo Records) is their fourth release and first full-length album and finds the band working with long-time producer Fadi Tabbal of Tunefork Studios. The album’s lyrics reveal a young woman caught between hope and despair, and the music complements that dichotomy with instrumentation that nods to dream pop, noise rock, shoegaze and jangle pop.
The album comes after 3 well-received EPs: Lakehouse (2013), What Lies So Still (2015) and Here Before (2017). The band has been regularly touring Europe, the UK and the Middle East since 2014 and has also opened for bands like Beirut (2014) and Angus and Julia Stone (2015). Initially formed as a quartet with their friend Rany Bechara, the band now operates as a trio.

in the press
“Superbly engineered and faultlessly performed, with its deeply rhythmic musical and vocal tones it’s an addictive and high-value player”
“Dreamy, introspective Postcards might just be the next band to break it big outside of Beirut”
“With their debut album, Postcards have succeeded in creating a silent but moving work that does not force itself, but convinces through its depth
”
“ I’ll be here in the morning is a consistent and well-executed album of dreamy slow-core”
“The feelings Postcards project live are a true representation of life here, a city of youth, love and life, with an underlying, unspoken sense of dejection and gloom ”
“The album contains all that yearning, ecstasy and escapism which characterizes good dream pop”
