Bon Iver - For Emma, Forever Ago
(Jagjaguwar) CD & LP
Bon Iver (pronounced: bohn eevair) is the story of Justin Vernon. After retreating to the winter woods for 3 months of solitude, chopping wood & soul searching, Vernon began a new musical focus, recording songs that eventually became For Emma. Personal trouble, heartache, longing, love, loss & guilt fuel a gorgeous set of lightly strummed folky ballads, warmed by Vernon’s lush, fractured vocal melodies. For fans of Grizzly Bear.
