Roughly one decade after releasing a covers album together, Iron & Wine have once again teamed with Ben Bridwell (Band of Horses) for a follow-up covers collection, this time a new EP called Making Good Time, out Sept. 12.
The first single is a new take on "Luther," originally by Kendrick Lamar and Sza.
"I chose to focus on ‘Luther' after kinda hitting a wall wondering which songs would be best to contribute. After much hand-wringing, it hit me, 'Why not just do my favorite song?' I’d been playing the then newly released GNX album on repeat and that song in particular with my girls to the point of exhaustion," Bridwell says.
Banf of Horses and Iron & Wine are also planning a co-headlining tour this fall.
Tracklisting:
- I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For
- Luther
- I Want To Know What Love Is
- More Than This
- Ketchum, ID
