Iron & Wine, the moniker of singer/songwriter and film studies lecturer Sam Beam, returns to Australia for the first time since 2018 – this time as soloist in a captivating run of shows in capital cities and festival appearances, drawing from his transcendent and illuminating folk sounds.
Known for his deeply burnished vocals, keen melodic sensibility, and introspective, free-flowing lyrical point of view, Iron & Wine is one of the preeminent artists and collaborators of the first wave of indie folk.
Following his most recent EP release of covers, Making Good Time – a collaboration with Ben Bridwell (Band of Horses), and his 2024 full length album Light Verse, Iron & Wine come to Australia off the back of a huge US tour with award-winning trio I’m With Her and Seattle favourites Band of Horses.
For more than a decade, Iron & Wine has crafted a body of work spanning seven studio albums, numerous EPs and singles, each marked by atmospheric arrangements, poetic storytelling, and Sam Beam’s singular voice.

From modest beginnings with The Creek Drank the Cradle, through the rustic beauty of The Shepherd’s Dog, the bold explorations of Kiss Each Other Clean and Ghost on Ghost, to the reflective resonance of Beast Epic and the orchestral sweep of Light Verse, Iron & Wine has earned acclaim for its capacity to move between the hushed and the grand with elegance and emotional clarity.
Iron & Wine will perform solo, playing stripped back music from his expansive catalogue including songs from latest album Light Verse, fan favourites from his collaborations with Calexico and I’m With Her, and the cinematic gems such as the slow dance soundtrack from Twilight. Supports to be announced.
Iron & Wine tour Australia this February and March in an intimate live experience of joyful folk and feel-good moments. This event is not to be missed!

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
