Light Verse is the seventh studio album by the American singer-songwriter Iron & Wine, released on April 26, 2024, by Sub Pop. It is Sam Beam's first solo album since Beast Epic (2017), and follows his collaborative album with Calexico, Years to Burn (2019).
Light Verse was produced by Sam Beam and features contributions from Tyler Chester on keyboards, Sebastian Steinberg on bass, David Garza on guitar, Paul Cartwright on violin, Griffin Goldsmith, Beth Goodfellow, and Kyle Crane on percussion. Fiona Apple contributed additional vocals on "All in Good Time".[1] Beam says the title Light Verse came from the process of making the album, which he says, "felt like coming out of a tunnel into a kind of light."[2]
The album was announced on February 7, 2024, simultaneously with the release of the lead single "You Never Know".[3]
Iron & Wine will support the album by headlining a 2024 summer tour throughout North America.[4]
