Part of Hancher's 52nd season

Iron & Wine and Manual Cinema present a beautiful blending of light and shadow.

Sam Beam is a singer-songwriter who has been creating music as Iron & Wine for over a decade. Through the course of seven albums, numerous EPs and singles, and the initial volumes of an Archive Series, Iron & Wine has captured the emotion and imagination of listeners with distinctly cinematic songs. That cinematic quality is brought to life during this tour to support the album Light Verse with visuals designed and created by the shadow puppet masters of Manual Cinema.

“This chapter of Iron & Wine is one of juxtapositions…Beam balances world weariness with self-aware optimism and how to honor your past while welcoming change…Light Verse is, at turns, clever, disarming and quietly funny.” – Past
