...moniker Iron & Wine: Where once was a hushed grandeur, a well-oiled beast has let out a hollow howl. Beam’s previous solo LPs (2002’s “The Creek Drank the Cradle” and 2004’s “Our Endless Numbered Days”) glowed with disarming, whispered proximity. While these full-lengths and a few interspersed EPs have found his homespun aesthetic—all tape hum and endearing errors—buried beneath ever-thickening layers of production, his new release, “The Shepherd?...

Leathery sea turtles bob lazily offshore, and the light cacophony of birdsong accents the ambient sound of wind and waves...
