Long before Justin Vernon became/formed Bon Iver, Samuel Beam was serenading the world with tender folk tunes.
You might him know him better as Iron and Wine — ‘cuz his real name isn’t cool enough? — one of the forerunners of today’s bearded folk movement.
Beam will perform Sunday, Sept. 22 at Winspear Centre. Tickets are $25 and $36.50 plus service charges via 780-428-1414 or the Winspear’s site. On sale: Friday, May 17 at 10 a.m.
The South Carolina native’s latest album, Ghost on Ghost, was released in April. He performed at the Folk Fest in 2009.
