KCRW's "Are Friends Eclectic?" holiday benefit, originally planned as a two-night event, will go off as a one-night affair featuring headliners Jimmy Cliff and Iron & Wine (pictured). Tickets for the show Dec. 3 at downtown's Orpheum Theatre start at $60. The rest of the formidable lineup lineup includes Other Lives, the Belle Brigade, Anna Calvi, the Secret Sisters, Mia Doi Todd and Zee Avi, along with promised "special guests." The scaling back of the event was perhaps a reflection of the lean economic times. "Early ticket sales for the first night were [...]

As trilhas sonoras que embalam os filmes da saga Crepúsculo nunca conquistaram as mesmas críticas que as películas que representam, e são consideradas boas coletâneas da música independente, incluindo artistas como Death Cab For Cutie , Beck , St. Vincent e Muse em suas seleções. Para o novo filme da série, "Amanhecer", a lista de faixas escolhidas não impressiona, mas um momento se destaca: a versão acústica e orquestrada de Flightless Bird, American Mouth , uma das mais célebres canções de Sam Beam e seu Iron & Wine . [...]

check out the IRON & WINE 's somber yet romantic new FLIGHTLESS BIRD, AMERICAN MOUTH video, which soundtracks the forthcoming much hyped TWILIGHT wedding scene though the black n white video itself doesn't feature any wed scenes. wotyougot

Iron and Wine's somber yet romantic "Flightless Bird, American Mouth" first appeared on Sam Beam and company's 2007 album The Shepherd's Dog . The perfect song for love so intense it hurts, the track then made its way onto the soundtrack for the first Twilight film (and the cheesy prom scene ). Now, with the world's most famous shiny vampire series beginning its swan song, the ode gets turned with a reimagined version. Set to appear on the soundtrack for the series' second to last film, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - [...]

Trey Anastasio | photo by whitperson This week in NYC shows, there's some great jazz, including Pat Metheny (Tues @ The Blue Note), Wynton Marsalis (Fri & Sat @ Lincoln Center), and Brad Mehldau and Joshua Redman (Sun @ Bailey Hall). Other than some classic jazz, there's a nice mix of funk, folk, rock, and a ton of live electronic dance music to round out the week. Tuesday night at Bowery Electric, there's the Bernie Worrell Orchestra w/ Wolf , the Erik Deutch Band , and a few [...]
Matt Stevens' instrumental arsenal does not compare to a full-blown orchestra, which for can be a challenging task for one without vocal accompaniment. Percussion, bass, and guitars are all he needs, with glockenspiel and strings entering the fray occasionally. His two past full-lengths have resulted in a significant online following, who are bound to swoon [...]

Firstly, my apologies, and many of them for not having written anything for a while. If there are any personal grievances please get in contact with me and I'll happily make amends, through manual labour, washing dishes, dog walking, hair pruning, under arm tickling……whatever really. The point being I feel bad, the summer ran away with me and maybe most notably I have only just returned from a stint in Ibeeefffaaa!! Still slightly broken and bewildered I move forward with a positive attitude, repeating the mantra "I am fine I am fine, I do not feel like crying" over [...]

And cue the collective sigh of relief (or remorse, depending): festival season is over. Basically. With the triumphant conclusion of Arcade Fire on Friday night, the 2011 installments of the "Big Four" are officially kaput. There are a few minor festivals here and there left for fall and winter to tide us over until next April in Indio, but by and large we've seen what 2011 had to offer. We don't want to get too sentimental or take the spotlight away from Austin City Limits , but it was a hell of a year, folks. From Dave Grohl and [...]
When an artist embarks on a solo project at a young age, the pursuit is commendable. Such ambition is shown on the full-length album by Leaves of Green, Imago. The album was created by one James Madole, a 20-year-old student at New York University. On his debut, Madole uses an infusion of vocals, guitar, ukulele, [...]

Filed under: News , New Releases Douglas Mason, Getty Images Both Iron & Wine and the Low Anthem are fans of vinyl and so it's not that they didn't want to celebrate Record Store Day this year -- they're just showing up fashionably late to the party. Like, a month late. The two bands have teamed up to release a limited edition split 12" vinyl featuring live performances from their respective Daytrotter [...]

I can't remember the first song Samuel Beam played, and I can't remember the last. The whole concert, to be honest, was one huge blur of Iron & Wine rocking out, forgetting lyrics, taking requests, talking directly to the audience, and rocking out again. And I, five feet from the stage, was hanging [...]

As reported last week, Sam Bean and his alt-folk band Iron & Wine will be releasing a new album in early 2011. Captioned above is the official art work for Kiss Each Other Clean , a captivating illustration of what seems to be Beam (beard and outfit kinda gives him away) surrounded by water in a colorful line and shape world. The 10-track follow-up to the amazing Shepard's Dog will be out on January 25th via Warner Bros., but until then you can get a taste of the record by ordering its first single [...]
