Iron And Wine — Around The Well

in
By Ian Gormely (CHARTattack) June 12, 2009 1:25 pm
It feels a little premature for Sam Beam to be collecting his various odds and ends recordings with only three LPs to his name. But as this double disc affair proves, he's been a busy man. Around The Well is split by Beam's two sonic incarnations: the lonely, lo-fi troubadour and the more rocking (for folk music) full band. The lo-fi first disc...

Iron & Wine Show Is Magic

in
By Zack Vitiello (CHARTattack) November 14, 2008 4:54 pm
I'm not sure what kind of magic Sam Beam of Iron & Wine is hiding deep in the curly locks of his facial hair, but whatever it is, Toronto fans were lucky enough to get a taste of it at last night's sold-out show. Beam casually strolled on to the stage with a smile and a wave and began with a charming rendition of "He Lays In The Reins...

Iron & Wine — The Shepherd's Dog

in
By Matt Littlefair (CHARTattack) September 25, 2007 11:37 am
Trying to unravel the myriad layers of an Iron & Wine record takes a lot longer than you might think. As the title might suggest, the idea of who actually possesses control is the heavy thematic element throughout The Shepherd's Dog. Written once again in an atmosphere of "political confusion," it's the understated percussion and intricate...

Iron & Wine — Our Endless Numbered Days

in
By Brian Pascual (CHARTattack) March 31, 2004 4:00 pm
I can’t get enough of this lyric: "Love is a dress that you made/Long to hide your knees/Love to say this to your face/’’I’ll love you only’" (from "Love And Some Verses"). I read it over and over while listening to the song and can’t help thinking that from other mouths, the words would sound over-the-top and smarmy. But from Iron &...

WATCH: Iron & Wine "Godless Brother in Love" music video

in
By Simone Zucker (CHARTattack) January 3, 2012 5:43 pm
Even though Iron & Wine released Kiss Each Other Clean almost a year ago, it's never too late to make a music video. The Claire Marie Vogel-directed clip for the tender track "Godless Brother in Love" is the perfect visual to warm you up on this cold winter day. It follows a group of friends hanging out in the sun-drenched outdoors and...

Iron And Wine — Kiss Each Other Clean

in
By Kate Harper (CHARTattack) January 28, 2011 4:15 pm
It'd be kind of pointless at this point to say Kiss Each Other Clean represents "a change in sound" for Sam Beam, the man who's better known as Iron And Wine. Bean's sound has been twisting and evolving since his Our Endless Numbered Days sophomore album came out in 2004. But Kiss Each Other Clean is notable in that it sees Beam further expand the...

Iron And Wine Beaming With Fun On New Record

Unlike some overzealous musicians who never leave the studio, Iron And Wine frontman Sam Beam enjoyed his time off by having fun raising his daughter, going on tour with Calexico and recording a new album just for kicks. The singer/songwriter just finished recording his third studio album, The Shepherd's Dog, a full three years after 2004's Our...
