With just a handful of tickets left for Iron & Wine’s Athenaeum Theatre show, Handsome Tours are very chuffed to present a second and final Melbourne show at the Corner Hotel on Wednesday March 12. Tickets go on sale on Wednesday February 6.
Iron and Wine ( aka Sam Beam ) made a long awaited return this year with his third full-length album, 'The Shepherd’s Dog', and to coincide will be making another long awaited return, that being to Australia, coincidentally also his third visit to these shores, and first since 2004.
The new album, whilst continuing Beam’s tradition of beauty and quality, marks a massive leap in vision. The arrangements are kaleidoscopic and lush, encompassing a massive swathe of interwoven musical influences and sounds derived from a myriad of instruments, all drawn together by Sam Beam’s inviting, honeyed vocal. Taken as a whole, The Shepherd’s Dog is a dreamscape that comes to life.
Naturally to perform such intricate and wonderful music is going to require a band of some substance, so Australian audiences will in fact be treated to the new, full Iron and Wine line-up for this series of shows.
Friday March 7 – The Athenaeum Theatre, Melbourne
