Attended a showing in Edmonton, Canada last night. It was incredible. We laughed and cried and sang along and I love the way the band is breathing new life into the songs. Thanks for letting us into your life Sam.
Your music so often resounds and there's certainly times in my life when I need to turn to your music for balance, inspiration, serenity, and absolutely composure. Will be nice to hear this new one when it gets released; looking forward to it!
The movie came out on March 1st for cinemas. I have seen people in the comments being confused when and where it's gonna come out. Hope everyone has a good one.
I can't wait for the documentary itself, his music has been a central part of my life for years and years. The performances on the "soundtrack" are OK, but to be honest I prefer a handful of other version of the tracks I've heard to the ones recorded for this film. I am a BIG Iron and Wine fan, so I say this without any intention of disparaging the artist or his work: he sounds like he's REALLY trying to jazz things up on a lot of the recordings, to the detriment of the songs. For example, Passing Afternoon is such a warm, evocative, yet bittersweet song, and yet the recording here seems to have lost those things along the way...at least in-part. If you're here watching this trailer, you've almost certainly watched many of his impromptu live performances uploaded here by various channels and know what I'm talking about when I say that many of his songs come through best with minimal backing, rather just focus on him and his guitar. Some of his more recent material necessitates having a full band and there's been a number of performances that have toed that line really well, between being blown out and stripped down...my personal favorite is the Pitchfork session video where he plays through a lot of Beast Epic and imho does the best live version of Call Your Boys and other previously minimalist tracks from the Around the Well era. Rambling here...once again, can't wait for the storytelling side of this film and as always to see his phenomenal musicianship on display.
i think i need to listen to the soundtrack several more times to really get it into me… it’s the same with most music, i find, in how i listen to it and find out what i love. i wanted to respond because of what you said about live performances and the full band. i really only listen to iron & wine’s album versions much, but my all-time favorite album is not an album, it’s the live performance at bonnarroo 2005. there’s a full band, and some of the songs sound quite different to the recorded versions. but it’s incredible. i made me fall completely in love with some songs that i had overlooked or didn’t initially care much for. i haven’t really listened to or watched a lot of other live performances besides that one. it’s iconic for me (and i wish it was available on my streaming service of choice, Tidal!)
@@twobluestripes I definitely understand that…it takes me sometimes an obnoxiously long time to get used to new music, even from my favorite artists. It took me until a few months ago to get into John Mayer’s sob rock for example…and I think that had been out almost two years by that point. So, maybe I’ll come to enjoy the soundtrack. At this point, I’ve removed it from my Apple Music library because I wouldn’t actively seek it out. I’ll check out the bonaroo performance!! And here’s the aforementioned pitchfork one (I think with the same backing band as the documentary) ua-cam.com/users/liveQZIwLR426Mo?si=BRGzUuqcJMJXCv7g Used Tidal for a while, great service. Give Apple Music a try sometime if you have an iPhone: the high res integration is really solid nowadays.

Sam's music is some of the most beautiful there ever was
A good friend introduced me to Iron and Wine a few months ago and I have not stopped listening since. I can't wait to see this.
It'll be a masterpiece just like 'Dreamers and makers are my favourite people'
Hiya , love Iron & Wine and wondering how I and others in the UK could watch this . Looks so interesting. Thank you 💚💙
I’m a fan of iron and wine. I wish he would give me more of his archive series vibes. Those old recordings bring me to tears 😭
😭😭😭😭 This is going to be so awesome. We love you and we see you Sam ❤❤❤

Love from South Carolina!
