[1] Postcards was formed in the summer of 2012 in Lebanon when cousins Marwan Tohme and Pascal Semerdjian met Julia Sabra through mutual friends while on a camping trip.

[3] The band started off by playing the pub circuit across Beirut, performing a varied repertoire of both English and American folk-rock music, gradually building a loyal fan base while writing the songs that would become their first EP Lakehouse released in the fall of 2013, which was described by one reviewer as "down-to-earth, gentle, yet packed with energy".

[4] The band started working on their second EP in late 2014 in Beirut with producer Fadi Tabbal from Tunefork Studios,[5] and ‘What Lies So Still’ was released in early summer 2015 to excellent reviews.

In the words of Adam Grundey from Triplew.me,[6] the 6 songs are "more complex, less conventional, and all the richer for it (...) The sound of a self-confident group of artists pushing themselves to articulate, musically and lyrically, what they’re feeling, What Lies So Still is a gorgeous set of songs that feel utterly genuine and built-to-last.”[citation needed] Here Before EP was released in the spring of 2017 in limited quantities around Germany, Austria and Switzerland, via T3 Records (Berlin).

[8] Postcards have played shows all across Lebanon, toured Jordan, Dubai, the UK, France, Portugal, Italy and recently in Berlin - Germany.
