Samuel Beam (26 July 1974 - present), better known by his stage and recording name
Iron & Wine, is an American singer-songwriter. He has released four studio albums, several EPs and singles, as well as a few download-only releases, which include a live album (a recording of his 2005 Bonnaroo performance). He tours with a full band.
Beam was raised in South Carolina before moving to Florida to attend school and now resides outside of Austin, Texas. The name
Iron & Wine is taken from a dietary supplement named "Beef Iron & Wine" that he found in a general store while shooting a film.
