Sam Beam pays London a visit
Iron & Wine have a striking back catalogue.
Listening back to their material, you are often struck by the sheer consistency of Sam Beam's work. Chained to the studio, the songwriter rarely - if ever - puts a foot wrong, crafting engaging nuggets of Americana.
Returning earlier this year with their new album 'Kiss Each Other Clean' Iron & Wine were on typically gripping form. Playing sporadic live dates throughout 2011, the band recently confirmed a two night stand in London.
Taking to the stage at the Hackney Empire followed by the Shepherds Bush Empire, Iron & Wine promised something very special for the capital.
Sending along Rachel Lipsitz we were able to capture a flavour of the show at the Hackney Empire.
