I can remember the first time I encountered Iron & Wine, I saw the lead singer on T.V. and that huge beard, I really wasn't sure what to think. Unfortunately I couldn't hear the music because of it being a commercial for something else, however eventually I came across this track (I think I got a copy from a friend, or one of my legal free downloads). Anyhow, upon initial play I was immediately hooked on these guys. Just a very simple, mellow sound, but so good. I went on to discover other songs of theirs like "flightless bird, american mouth" among others. If you like great songwriting, and a mellow, steady beat, these guys could be for you. Definitely check them out.
