Iron & Wine Gears Up for The Greene Space

Soundcheck | Jan 4, 2011

The secret’s out: our in-studio guest today is Iron & Wine. The acclaimed indie-folk group joins us in-studio for a sneak preview of “Kiss Each Other Clean,” the band’s first album of new material in three years. And: clear your calendar for tonight. Join John Schaefer and an audience of about 150 people in The Greene Space at 8 p.m. for an exclusive NPR Music “First Listen” concert. Iron & Wine will perform the new album in its entirety for the first time, three weeks before its release date.
