Iron & Wine adds U.S. tour dates
Sensitive souls take heart; Iron & Wine has added a few dates to its U.S. tour in April. The U.S. shows are scheduled between international jaunts for Sam Beam, Sam Beam’s beard, and Co. In March, the band will be in Australia and New Zealand. In May, it'll be in England, Ireland and Scotland.
