    This guy was in jackson with his new album out in 2002.. i hate i missed that show..
    His first album was actually a demo cd, it was so good they just released it in the same format..
    He then released Our endless Numbered Days... which is amazing.
    his guitar playing, and incredible voice is veyr organic.. definantly somethign to chill to.
    In febuary his Woman King EP comes out, i got a early copy and its some of his best music to date.

    Miami's Sam Beam makes music under the name Iron and Wine and September, 2002 saw the release of his debut album, The Creek Drank the Cradle. That record was/is hushed, literate, intimate, melodic: a quiet treasure which, with its unaffected candor and depth, found fans all over. (Entertainment Weekly: "Based in Miami, of all places, [Beam] invests these songs with hypnotic beauty and sparkling melody, making them as accessible as they are affecting.") Our Endless Numbered Days is the second full-length album from Iron and Wine and it was recorded both at Sam's Miami home and in Chicago's Engine Studios with Brian Deck (Red Red Meat, Modest Mouse, Ugly Casanova, etc.) On it, Sam is aided and abetted by regular touring and recording conspirators: his sister Sarah Beam, Patrick McKinney, Jeff McGriff, EJ Holowicki, and Jonathon Bradley. Listening to Our Endless Numbered Days makes plain Sam's deft touch with words and melody; one that allows him to turn out stories about love, loss, faith, or the lack of it that are at once personal and universal, set to music that is sweetly haunting and timeless.

    That's a good song. Might have to check out his other stuff.
    I just don't end up where think I'm going when I start out.

    Been meaning to listen to his stuff more often. I've heard the new Ep is going to incorperate strings and other various instruments.

    I've been grooving to Elliott Smiths new one like there's no tomorrow. What would you suggest for a first pick-up on Iron & Wine?
    I do not suppose I shall be remembered for anything. But I don't think about my work in those terms. It is just as vulgar to work for the sake of posterity as to work for the sake of money.

    Yeah, I have their cover of Postal Service's "Such Great Heights". Not bad. That song won't, however, be appearing on my countdown of the top 100 songs of 1990-1994 tonight but tune in anyway. http://70.84.73.110:8000/listen.pls
    Keep your headphones on.
