Iron and Wine

Iron and Wine plays the Castro Theatre on October 16. Sam Beam's work has consistently explored the intersections of folk and country, moving from the sparse, intimate recordings of his early career to more layered, collaborative arrangements on recent albums. This show offers a chance to hear his distinctive storytelling and vocal style in a unique setting. The Castro Theatre in San Francisco provides a grand, historic backdrop for a performance like this. It's a seated venue, which tends to suit the reflective nature of Iron and Wine's music. Fans who appreciate thoughtful lyricism and acoustic-driven melodies will likely find this a worthwhile evening.
