?Iron and Wine to perform at Buskirk Chumley

Iron and Wine will perform at 8 p.m. today at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater.

Singer-songwriter Jesca Hoop will open the show for singer-songwriter Sam Beam, who goes by the stage name Iron and Wine.

Beam released his latest album in spring 2013. It is titled “Ghost on Ghost.”

Beam sought to move from what he called the “anxious tension” of his two previous records, according to the singer’s website.

“This record felt like a reward to myself after the way I went about making the last few,” he said on his website.

Beam released his first Iron and Wine album, “The Creek Drank the Cradle,” on the Sub Pop label in 2002.

Beam created everything in his home studio, ranging from writing the music to performing, recording and producing the music.

It features acoustic guitars, banjo and slide guitar. The music has been compared to that of Simon and Garfunkel.

The show is sold out, but the theater is keeping a waiting list in case tickets become available, according to the theater’s website. Call 812-323-3020, or visit the BCT Box Office to add your name to the list. Tickets are $49.
