Iron & Wine - Full Performance (Live on KEXP) 

This version of Lion’s Mane, trip up and all, is everything

I love how quiet the room gets when he starts playing!

This version of Upward Over the Mountain..... goosebumps!!

It's sad that most people would complain about the 'mistakes' but this concert is such a real representation of him as a guy. Just a plain good song writer and a nice dude.

the version of upwards over the mountains is so deeply moving in such a dignified way

Just discovered this guy. Fell in love right away.

Everytime I see this guy in a live performance a smile comes to my face. Such a humble guy, great voice, great lyrics and so underrated. Better for us though, who enjoy good-inspiring music.

I love this guy - he has a beautiful soul.

Upward over the mountain is one of my favorite I&W songs; based on these comments, I'm expecting something nothing short of amazing.

Agreed. Doesn't get any better than a great voice, great songwriting, and an acoustic guitar.

The earth is always warmer when you laugh :)

This performance never gets old.

my favorite band/artist. Seeing them live for the first time in May!! Finally I can scratch "See Iron & Wine live" off my bucket list.

This dude is so good!

i love bikes and iron and wine

Living in the UK i got to say a big thank you to KEXP for without i would not discover talented musicians such as Sam Beam. & many more. & of course Mellow Johnny's Bike Shop just the coolest venue ever!

He sounds amazing as a live performer. I'm just getting into this music and its 2022. Where have I been?

And what a crazy astonishing version of Uward Over The Mountain

Sam I named my child after you. The music you create is absolutely beautiful.

He's such a cool guy seems like he would be fun to have a beer with

Beautiful. Thank you Sam and thank you KEXP.

such a beautiful voice.. always when I hear a song for the first time I cry...engulfing beauty

I love how real this guy is. I only know a few songs, but I'd love to see him live.

I wish my life were as perfect as his performance of Glad Man Singing.

I wish Sam would release a live album. Seeing him perform Cinder and Smoke at Sasquatch changed his music for me.

Truly fantastic. Seems like a lovely guy too.

This just got me super excited. I'm seeing Iron & Wine for the first time live next month! It's going to be absolutely incredible.

thanks for posting this. awesome!

No words... I love this man ! Thumb up for Mellow Johnny's Bike Shop !!

his beard fits perfectly around the mic

Thanks so much KEXP for this gem! I love I&W

i love this being. has such an amazing soul ❤️🙏

Love his music!!!!

Thank god for " Upward Over The Mountain " guy

that one guy reeeeally wants to hear Boy with a Coin.

and they all sound perfectly well.

This is just awesome! Your voice reminds me of Michael Hedges. Thanks for your music!

so much raw talent

I’m so happy you played Jesus the Mexican boy, and woman king! Both favourites of mine!

He's having fun by not playing Boy With A Coin when they call it.

SO SO SO EXCITED!!!! gonna see him in the fall of 2013, n am SO SO SO excited :) thank you for your talent! :)

I love this singer and his music.

Amazing set!

That's how it is at SXSW: They fit them in where they can, all over the city's downtown. I saw Castanets in a church. Good times. Highly recommended if you can afford the tickets (I paid by the day the year I went).

Oh, so lovely!

Beautiful set.

Can't get enough!

Give this guy's beard a Grammy already!

It took me twelve minutes to realize he's playing in a bike shop.

love thats its in a bike shop

Hey I am too! So excited!!

amazing!

great show.... and in a bike shop. classic seattle. these more informal music gatherings are big fun to watch. learning a little about the people behind the songs is special, and this dude has such a cool vibe about him. thanks to kexp for hosting this and sharing the results. may your children have children.

Agreed. I think that was one of the best songs in this performance....

What an amazing afternoon concert, I appreciate his patience with those shouting guys... My favourite performer in activity, no doubt! Thanks Sam

love itt!!!!

get to see him on Monday in Atlanta so excited.

Sam's fuckin funny!! At like 28:00 A dude yells out "I love you Sam Beam!" and Sam's like "I love you too. Thanks for coming Dad." LMAO

Why not? it was fantastic! He rarely plays his studio versions live. When I saw him he said something along the lines of "You can listen to the CD at home. I'm here to give you a musical experience." Anywho, it's different, but I think it was a good acoustic/solo version.

Yes, yes, and yes!

this guy plays a different version every time. boy with a coin was so nice

i finally found me some real mountain music...Man how i miss them

amazin..ty

All time fav artist next is tallest man on earth

Great music song. Great guitar 🎸. 👍🔥

i think he's the kindest man ever.. he's just so kind...

thanks

Great little mini concert at a bicycle shop of all places

What a great version of "Woman King" !!!

That smile....

glad man singing is my new favorite song

Great!

Stave the ego, Feed the soul This guy embodies that statement

That's hysterical. Great comment! (And rare, too.)

Iron & Wine delivering an awe-inspiring performance in São Paulo last 2nd September is going to be one of my fondest memories ever. Hearing his voice feels like home. I was so overwhelmed that I hardly noticed the bloody mobile/camera freaks and pissing Twilight Saga twats taking stupid selfies during the concert (there should be a law against these people even breathing). But Sam is a perfect gentleman, so he rose above it. He played for 2 hours straight and that was the case when just a man and his guitar suffice to transcend. I’ve been a fan for 10 years or so but only at the concert did I realise the prodigiously gifted (and yet kind and humble) instrumentalist Sam is. Sometimes, when playing a bluesy tune, he’d go into a solemn trance-like state, meaning every word coming out of his mouth. That was sheer awesomeness! But he had fun as well, cracking jokes now and then. So I can hardly wait for his next Brazilian tour.

a poet! get the man a Pulitzer instead of a grammy

Sam Beam may be the best lyricist ever. At least since Paul Simon.

23:59 Upward Over the Mountain That was such a beautiful performance. :)

That is too wide question. For example my favourite is three by the river. Makes me cry almost everytime :)

that falsetto during the lion's mane...

"NAKED AS WE CAME, I SAID" lmao

Milwaukee is a deaf ear for winter prayers.

i'd love to see you come up with it then

Iron and Wine, when will you play the great room at the Sierra Nevada great room in Chico, CA? Bring Jesca Hoop, if you can.

saw him at the Bottelrock festival complete with a horn section playing atonal jazz sections. All of the songs he played were completely redone and filled to the brim with energy

Oh man look at his mustache caress that microphone head, it must be in heaven.

I started crying when i read this. cheers hahahah

❤

Sam beam is by far my favourite artist

i wanna rob this bike shop!! i love biking!!!! good shit from this mang too.

I'd love to see you do what he does. plain and simple

New Album Purchased.

11:45 Now that's some real swag.

He might be tired, but definitely in good spirits :-)

wish theyd show the crowd some more..

I really wish I could get the chords for his live performances.

i want to go to one of his concerts but i'm fat

Is there anywhere that this can be found as an MP3 download? I could listen to this over and over, but then I'll max out my data pretty quick.

Wonder if they picked up any EPO while they were there...

i believe its c, aminor, f? if i remember correctly and capo 6
