The earthy, hypnotic folk sound of Iron and Wine comes to the intimate Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theatre on Thursday November 18th at 8PM with special guest Nomo. This is part of the Cruzan Concert Series.
Iron and Wine, the principal recording/performing vehicle for current Austin,TX resident Sam Beam has, since 2002, released three full-length albums and a handful of EPs and singles. An incredibly prolific songwriter, Sam has built each album from a wealth of recorded material. Many of the songs not found on individual Iron and Wine releases later surfaced in live performance and in various limited-edition compilations. He then released Around the Well, collecting songs ranging from out-of-print to never-before-released tunes that span Iron and Wine’s earliest sessions which yielded the band’s debut (2002’s The Creek Drank the Cradle) through material recorded for 2007’s The Shepherd’s Dog. The double-disc Around the Well collection is broken up into two sections. The first half is an assortment of hushed home recordings, unedited and raw, and the second highlights moments captured in the confines of proper studios with the help of other musicians, friends and engineers. His next effort, the new album, Kiss Each Other Clean, is due in early 2011.
