I recently have come to Love Iron & Wine. Iron & Wine is the stage name for a Samuel Beam (born July 26, 1974), an American singer-songwriter. His whispered vocals and beautiful guitar make the perfect match for a “homespun indie folk” artist. His style of music is truly beautiful. The Iron & Wine station on Pandora is one of my favorites. Music for those who love pretty soft music to listen to while their thoughts are free to explore or focus.
Beam was raised in South Carolina, Beam received his bachelors degree in art from Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond and later his Master of Fine Arts degree from Florida State University Film School. As an interesting fact, The name Iron & Wine is taken from a dietary supplement named "Beef Iron & Wine" that he found in a general store while shooting a film in school.
Since 2002 Beam has been creating albums, EP’s, singles, and even a few download only’s - all beautiful music.
Iron & Wine is truly unique-and I think it is evident he wants that. He looks as if he were a hitchhiker traveling in different countries. He has a giants beard and most photos of him he looks rather peculiar. None the less, it is intriguing and honestly, when you make music like he does, It doesn’t really matter what you look like.
