Bon Iver

Wednesday, July 30, 2008

In a period of just a few months, singer-songwriter Justin Vernon broke up with his girlfriend, lost friends and his band. He spent a winter holed up in his father's hunting cabin in remote Wisconsin, recording songs about solitude that would be released under the name Bon Iver. He joins us to play some of them live.

Bon Iver will play the Music Hall of Williamsburg tonight at 8:30.

    The idea of passing out lyrics sheets is not a bad one . . . it would help a first time listener get a grip on the songs . . .

    Most radio stations just went off air for about 10 seconds--what happened?

    Flume cut out for about 1 minute, no signal- pure noise... Of all the times for the radio to go out!!!!

    Sorry about the problem. We're investigating. The audio on the website and podcast will be unimpaired. Thanks for listening.
