Latest Recording: Sasabe For Sale

 Sasabe for Sale is an homage to my many years of living, playing and recording in Tucson, AZ. Recorded at New Monkey Studio, Van Nuys, CA.
 Sasabe, AZ is lonesome town situated on the border of Arizona and Mexico an hour and a half drive from Tucson. Aside from dust and shrubs, there is an old post office, police station and few other buildings. In 1960 the population was 30 and the price for Sasabe was $500,000. Currently the population is 11.

Green Man Festival

The Green Man Festival is held annually in Hay on Wye in Wales, UK. There are a lot of folk acts, but some other types of music as well. We (Iron and Wine) were headlining this stage and it was nice and dark by the time we went on. What an amazing scene this was! Very friendly folks having a good time and really into the music. Our friends in the band Low Anthem played before us and the crowd was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. When the song ended they just exploded in cheers. Wow. At the end of the night they burn the Green Man, a lot like burning man, but less freaky, more folky.

MAS in Antwerp

Iron and Wine had a day in Antwerp, BE, so I decided to got for a brisk long walk. I like to call it being a "Power Tourist" because we usually only have a few hours of free time in any given town, so I really have to move to see all the hot spots. After wandering the beautiful old town areas I came up to this, the MAS Museum, part of the Antwerp revitalization of the waterfront. Although I usually spend most of the time photographing old buildings, sometimes modern architecture is just awesome to behold as this certainly is. Of course I only took the pic and moved right along, next time I'll go inside - time permitting!

Iron and Wine Gear

This here is my keyboard set up for Iron and Wine. It's functional and pretty slick, has the sounds I need and is easy to set up and tear down. Nice for festivals and shows where we have limited time. Thanks to Korg and Nord for their support.
